I have now seen your posts both, the one about your new house and the other one.

I am not very good in saying things so I make it short: Please hang tight and do what it takes to pull thru. Who cares about trucks when stuff like that is on the agenda ? However, I know that the house and the truck and your buddies here on FTE will help to make you think about something else, at least for a while.

My prayers are with you !!!

Your friend from Germany

George,

just read your post and was totally knocked down by it... talk about bed side manner...

Buddy what can I say... hang tough and stay in the Lord's ear... by the end of the week I'll have 450 good to average Catholic families praying for you... the only thing we do better than play bingo is pray.. we'll all be working on it for you.. I think you and the wife will both live to see the last mortgage payment and ride for years in that fine truck...

gud luck

john

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 02-Jan-03 AT 10:56 PM (EST)]George, you're in our prayers here in Montana too. I don't have to tell you that attitude can have a big impact on this battle.

"God hasn't given us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline." NIV 2Timothy 1.7

Focus forward and hug that lady who loves you for better for worse, (trucks) for richer for poorer, (trucks and houses) in sickness and in health (I know you'd do the same for her), etc......
