quick note

5:52 am and I am getting ready for my first day back at the hospital in over a year. I would appreciate your prayers on my behalf especially since I woke up with a headache (I don't usually get headaches) after not sleeping very well last night. I spoke with Dan last night and he is doing well. Little pieces of the kidney stone are making their exit. We are grateful for that! Much more to say and no time. I leave you with a few verses:

John 20:24-31
Now Thomas, one of the Twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came.
So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see in his hands the mark of the nails, and place my finger into the mark of the nails, and place my hand into his side, I will never believe.”
Eight days later, his disciples were inside again, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”
Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and see my hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side. Do not disbelieve, but believe.”
Thomas answered him, “My Lord and my God!”
Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book;
but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.
