Cook's Short Order Update

Genesis 1:9 "Then God said, "Let the waters below the heavens be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appear"; and it was so.

"For the scientist who has lived by his faith in the power of reason, the story ends like a bad dream. He has scaled the mountain of ignorance; he is about to conquer the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he is greeted by a band of theologians who have been sitting there for centuries." Astronomer Robert Jastrow.

A trip to West Virginia a couple weekends ago included dropping Nate off at Appalachian Bible College ("thank you God, for such a fine place to leave our son!"), a couple hours with Bryan, a visit with our sending church, Mount Tabor Baptist Church, and several very short visits with others in the area. It was very tough leaving Nate, both for us and for him, but God gives us these precious gifts only for a time. Thank you God!

Prayer:
1. Trip to a new church in Indiana this weekend.
2. Need for General Director and Camp Program Director for Bible Impact Ministries.
3. Our home school has picked up again.

Praise:
1. Nate is safely at ABC
2. Breath in our lungs
3. Some awesome family times
4. Seth is excited to be learning in his science class about the universe God created.
5. Michelle and I got to take off for a couple days for our 25th anniversary (Thank you!).
