Dennis Rainey of Family Life Today just said on KKIM something like this, People are hungry to hear from people not filled with baloney! I could not agree more! People want the truth!!

Thanks to you all who have wrote and said that you love the new web site. www.deweysdailycup.com

I think Lew says it very well about the work Janetta has done on the web site. Janetta is a very modest person but I praise God for her and her passion for the LORD!
Dewey:
The completed web site look great and is an example of how a web site SHOULD look.
Its clean, uncluttered, and easy to navigate.
The lack of bandwidth wasting bad web site designs such as scrolling and flashing banners, flashing pictures, animation, etc. makes it a pleasure to visit, and have a cup of coffee while there.
Kudos to the designer and design team.

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns — August 6, 2008:
I have given you eyes to see and ears to hear, and I have opened the windows of heaven and have called you up to this high spiritual plateau where you can see and hear beyond your circumstances. Move above and beyond the things that anchor you to the things of the earth. Let your heart soar to gain vision and insight to the opportunities that are before you. Refuse to be held back by fear and insecurity. Release yourself into the liberty of My possibilities for you, says the Lord.
Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.
I read it more than once pray and ponder over that writing……….
I just got this today………an OUTSTANDING WRITING!!! This is another one to read over and over and let it sink in..do not be in a hurry……..drink it slowly……..let it absorb your soul and mind!
When Death Becomes Birth
by Max Lucado
You live one final breath from your own funeral.
Which, from God’s perspective, is nothing to grieve. He responds to these grave facts with this great news: “The day you die is better than the day you are born” (Eccles. 7:1). Now there is a twist. Heaven enjoys a maternity-ward reaction to funerals. Angels watch body burials the same way grandparents monitor delivery-room doors. “He’ll be coming through any minute!” They can’t wait to see the new arrival. While we’re driving hearses and wearing black, they’re hanging pink and blue streamers and passing out cigars. We don’t grieve when babies enter the world. The hosts of heaven don’t weep when we leave it.
Oh, but many of us weep at the thought of death. Do you? Do you dread your death? And is your dread of death robbing your joy of life?
Jesus came to “deliver those who have lived all their lives as slaves to the fear of dying” (Heb. 2:15).
Your death may surprise you and sadden others, but heaven knows no untimely death: “You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed” (Ps. 139:16).
Dread of death ends when you know heaven is your true home. In all my air travels I’ve never seen one passenger weep when the plane landed. Never. No one clings to the armrests and begs, “Don’t make me leave. Don’t make me leave. Let me stay and eat more peanuts.” We’re willing to exit because the plane has no permanent mailing address. Nor does this world. “But we are citizens of heaven, where the Lord Jesus Christ lives. And we are eagerly waiting for him to return as our Savior” (Phil. 3:20).
Why don’t you do this: give God your death. Imagine your last breath, envision your final minutes, and offer them to him. Deliberately. Regularly. “Lord, I receive your work on the cross and in your resurrection. I entrust you with my departure from earth.” With Christ as your friend and heaven as your home, the day of death becomes sweeter than the day of birth

Thursday morning – Aug. 7
We have new concerns this morning so want you to know so that you can pray. His temperature is up and his heart rate is up and he is sweating. This can be signs of pneumonia starting and there is a condition in brain injuries that they call ‘storming’. They will be doing more tests during the day. I’ll update this again tonight.
The STORY OF THE ACCIDENT:
On Friday evening Paul was riding his Harley on the way to a Northgate meeting when a car coming toward him took a left turn in front of him. From the skid marks we see that Paul slammed on his brakes but was unable to stop. He slammed into the back passenger side of the SUV.
The medics rushed him to the top trauma hospital in the area – Harborview Medical Center – because of the seriousness of the injuries and loss of blood.
Paul has multiple fractures, mainly on his right side, ankle, leg, wrist, T9 vertebrae, bones in his face, and a lot of soft tissue damage. One of the biggest concerns os the brain bleed and pressure on the brain. .
He is getting the best care form a whole team of doctors and specialists. He will have several surgeries as his body becomes ready for the procedures. His bones are splinted for now and he has a beathing tube. The plastic surgeon team worked on his face for 5 1/2 hours on Saturday.
The best way for you to contact us or find information about Paul is through this website. We will post updates reguarly. This will be a long term situation and there will be time later for visits from friends. For now, we ask that you do not come to the hospital because we are concerned about infection and they don’t want him stimulated too much. His temperature is still higher than it should be. There will be much time later for you to visit him as he will be going through recovery for considerable time.
We deeply appreciate your prayers and concern and calls. We know that there are MANY people praying and God will honor that!!!
Paul is fit and healthy so that will go a long way to help in his recovery.
Pastor Bob and Marion
Renae (sister), Merrie (wife), Mayah (almost 6)
and Paul’s extended family
Please keep Paul and his family in your prayers.

An unsung American Hero.
The dog above is Brutus, a military K9 at McChord Air Force Base, Wash. He’s huge – part boxer and part British bull mastiff and tops the scales at 200 lbs.
His handler took the picture. Brutus is running toward me because he knows I have some Milk Bones, so he’s slobbering away! I had to duck around a tree just before he got to me in case he couldn’t stop, but he did.
Brutus won the Congressional Medal of Honor last year from his tour in Iraq . His handler and 4 other soldiers were taken hostage by insurgents.
Brutus and his handler communicate by sign language and he gave Brutus the signal that meant ‘go away but come back and find me’.
The Iraqis paid no attention to Brutus. He came back later & quietly tore the throat out of one guard at one door and another guard at another door.
He then jumped against one of the doors repeatedly (the guys were being held in an old warehouse) until it opened. He went in and untied his handler and they all escaped.
He’s the first K9 to receive this honor. If he knows you’re ok, he’s a big old lug and wants to sit in your lap. He also enjoys the company of cats.
K-9 Medal of Honor Winner
God Bless you all, Dewey Sharon and family
