Dewey,
This almost made me cry! (Defeat of SB-12) In a time of such worry for my country’s future,
I am so thankful to God for making this happen!

I was not going to write a CUP this am but I had to post Shannon’s note…….as we should weep tears of thanks and glory! I have received many emails and calls. don’t have time to post all but had to have a quick cup! Thanks to you all who emailed and called.
PRAISE GOD!
We serve an AWESOME GOD…….We must not forget that nothing is impossible with GOD!
Thank GOD for HIS amazing ability to transform apparent tragedy into ultimate good.
One of the wonderful blessings in this whole thing is that GOD”S people came together. Pray that hearts will be continued to be given over to our LORD. Do not give up on America…that would be like giving up on our Lord. Keep praying!
Let us Pray……….
Father,
Loosen our grips on the useless accumulations of our lives that make us unfit for the narrow gate or the needle’s eye. In the name of Jesus, AMEN
Before I leave you, We have been praying for Jonathan…..here is an update………..some of you have asked for an update…..
Hello all, one of our warrior life buddies had some of his leg removed. I’m forwarding this email to you. Please drop him an email or call him. I think it would be nice if he heard from his brothers, even those he has never met. Thanks and keep him in your prayers

Hello Friends & Family,
It looks like they will be discharging me tomorrow. The podiatrist visited today and took out the suction bottle. He says in cases where there is good circulation, the staples usually come out after 2 week, in cases of poor circulation, it is usually 3 weeks. He showed me some exercises to do to begin increasing circulation, so I’ve already begun doig them. I’ve done over 200 just today. Today was also the first day to get up and about. I have in a dual PICC, but didn’t have any IV meds on at the time, so Vicki and I took a short trip to the end of the hall where I could see outside, to the tall pines to the north. It wore me out a bit, but I returned to my room under my own steam and continue to do some exercises.
During the quiet nights leading up to the surgery, I really think God healed my heart, so I wouldn’t experience any long-term sorrow or depression over my leg. Instead, there is a sense of joy that many of the problems I have experienced up til now (long term wound care, wound prevention, etc.) is no longer needed, so it’s almost like a new kind of freedom. I’m very grateful to all of you for your prayerful support, especially those who were with me during the tough spots. You are true friends.
And so it seems I’ll be going home tomorrow. Fortunately, my office has already been arranged and requires no readjustments. I’m not sure how quickly I will be returning to work, but I’m guessing I’ll work some on Saturday and play it by ear from there. I will follow up with the surgeon in 3 weeks for staple removal, hoping he will be encouraged by the signs of good circulation as a result of continued exercise and care to the leg.
Vicki and I appreciate each of you and thank you for your prayers.
