Kidney stone blasting!!!

Wow, what an experience! We began lining up at 8 a.m. in the waiting room...all patients waiting to have kidney stones "blasted"! I was 3rd in line, and when the guy before me came out, we asked him if it hurt. "No!" So, I got in there fully expecting very little pain...maybe some discomfort....well, 1/2 way through the electrical blasting of the right kidney, the doctor asked if I wanted pain killer...I must have had SOME look on my face! I said, "Yes, that would be good!" I made it, but it was UNCOMFORTABLE!!!

Be sure to drink PLENTY of water...trust me on this one!!!

I was thinking if God would call me to my Beloved Home Country and my little Paris to Szeged again, to spread the real good news, than....

...Evangelisation in the Stadium, than they call for emergency for fire the ambulance, for all the people, and would be approx 800 or more thousand people together, than would be so imbarrassing if the American "missionary" would take off first, not the people...imbarrassing..isn't?

...think Arden think...




(many good english teacher for the living...foreign working, far far away from Christ heart....)



Mother Theresa:

"...It hurt Jesus to love us. We have been created in His image for greater things, to love and to be loved. We just "put on Christ" as Scripture tells us. And so, we have been created to love as He loves us. Jesus makes Himself the hungry one, the naked one, the homeless one, the unwanted one, and He says, "You did it unto Me." On the last day He will say to those on His right, "whatever you did to the least of these, you did to Me, and He will also say to those on His left, whatever you neglected to do for the least of these, you neglected to do it for Me..."

Hope Arden you will read Mother Theresa's life REAL " Missionary " Christ like character, also maybe a Bible gift for the doctor would be proper to thank him.....not the wine..hmhm....what you think?



...think Arden think...

Love in Chirst, Agnes
