"THESE THINGS I KNOW"

                                                              Ronald Update:

Had  somewhat of a crazy day yesterday.... found out early in the day that some cultures taken had come back positive for that  pesty  Ecoli Bacteria he has gotten before. Thankfully it was detected much earlier than before (since in the hospital) so they started him on some different antibiotics and treatment immediately. Also later in the day he was REALLY sluggish so they checked  more labs and found out his hemoglobin was extremely low, soon he had to get a bunch of blood and fluids in him so his pressures, heart rate and oxygen could improve. So... he had a pretty uneasy night but this morning he is feeling much better and looking stable!!! 

                                                    Special Thought for the Day

We would like tot lovingly dedicate this thought to our beloved friends, the Currie Family. Taken from the poem written by President Boyd K. Packer, and shared again at his funeral services yesterday, we wanted to include the last several stanzas of his poem as we feel these word also represent the beautiful spirit, heart and testimony of our dear President Currie-  One of his great legacies most certainly is that THESE THINGS HE truly, deeply, and eternally KNOWS and lived and continues to live by every word!


I now can say with all certainty
That I know and love the Lord.
I can testify with them of old
As I preach His holy word.
I know what He felt in Gethsemane
Is too much to comprehend.
I know He did it all for us;
We have no greater Friend.
I know that He will come anew
With power and in glory.
I know I will see Him once again
At the end of my life’s story.
I’ll kneel before His wounded feet;
I’ll feel His Spirit glow.
My whispering, quivering voice will say,
“My Lord, my God, I know.”
