Update on Libby Pailer
Libby is not doing well. She has several blood clots that are obstructing blood flow which has caused sepsis. She is not a candidate for surgery as they are certain she wouldn't make it through the surgery. The medicine that they used to tried to dissolve the blood clots didn't work. She has decided to stop all further extraordinary measures and to go on hospice care.
Please pray for all her family and friends as they care for her and each other.
In her own words "I'm ready to go meet Jesus."
Prayer request for Libby Pailer
Please pray for Libby Pailer as she had a possible stroke on Friday and was put in the ICU last night.

DEVOTION: Psalm 111 English Standard Version (ESV)
Great Are the Lord's Works
111 [a] Praise the Lord!
I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart,
in the company of the upright, in the congregation.
2 Great are the works of the Lord,
studied by all who delight in them.
3 Full of splendor and majesty is his work,
and his righteousness endures forever.
4 He has caused his wondrous works to be remembered;
the Lord is gracious and merciful.
5 He provides food for those who fear him;
he remembers his covenant forever.
6 He has shown his people the power of his works,
in giving them the inheritance of the nations.
7 The works of his hands are faithful and just;
all his precepts are trustworthy;
8 they are established forever and ever,
to be performed with faithfulness and uprightness.
9 He sent redemption to his people;
he has commanded his covenant forever.
Holy and awesome is his name!
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;
all those who practice it have a good understanding.
His praise endures forever!
Did you know that vinyl records are making a comeback. Yup, old record stores are a thing now. One thing about records though is that if they get a bad scratch in them, they will skip and they will keep playing the same sound over and over again.
Sometimes as a pastor, I feel like I am a broken record, I keep saying the same things over and over again. Get back to church, come to Bible study, get your kids to Sunday school, we need more volunteers, and on and on and on it goes. Yet, these things are what I was called to do and to say and so I will keep on saying them until I don't need to anymore, when Jesus returns.
Another sound that you will hear over and over again until Jesus returns, and for eternity is his praise. "His praise endures forever!" Thank the Lord that we will always have that "broken record" in our ears. We will always hear God's praises from our own mouth and from the mouths of others. Even in the bleakest days, when the government is shut down, and the Vikings lose another NFC championship game, and the world seems lost, His praise endures forever.
Prayer: Lord, thank you for being my God, may your praise endure on my lips forever. Amen.
