[Faith-talk] Quotes for Saturday, October 29, 2016 and an unspoken Prayer Request

[Paul Smith]

Hello and greetings to all my cyber readers on this Saturday.  Of 
course, you in New Zealand will be in your Sunday before too long, but 
the rest of us just have to wait our turn for this day to come up in 
our respective time zones.  At any rate I hope that your day is going 
well as you read this message, by God's matchless grace and His 
providential care.

Here are today's two quotes for your consideration, pondering and reflection.

We have to be continually jumping off cliffs and developing our wings 
on the way down.  Kurt Vonnegut Jr.  (quote compiler's queery:  Can 
anyone explain to me what he means by this, as I am cluleless to its 
meaning? Thanks in advance).

Decide on what you think is right and stick to it.  George Eliot

And there you have today's quotes, but stay tuned to the humble prayer 
request from your obedient servant of the Lord.

I'm going to try my best to be diplomatically tactful here, something 
that I'm not very good at it.  First the request is not for me, but for 
a very good brother in the Lord.  He lives in the northern Virginia 
suburbs of Washington DC, and he wants his medical insurance company to 
lower their price on a particular medication he receives for a very 
painful condition.  For him the price of this particular med is 
extremely expensive.  Please pray that God's will be done in his 
situation and that he will receive the proper treatment, which has 
helped him in the past very well.  On his behalf thanks for your 
prayers, as I know that they will be appreciated by him and his family.

And that will do for today.  Until later when a timely article will be 
posted or until tomorrow when, Lord willing more quotes will be sent 
your way, I am your obedient servant of the One who lived an earthly 
existence, died to pay for your sins and mine, and now lives forever to 
bring us His salvation and peace, Oil of Gladness.
