MC #81 MENTORS

October 13th, 2008 by micharlie

MENTORS
Good Morning, Good Afternoon, Good Evening or Good Night what ever the time of day you listen to this the 81st MI Charlie RAVE. Coming To you from the Beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan!

About two hours after getting the news that the cancer had spread to the right lung now; I received an e-mail telling me that a dear friend who has been fighting cancer for the last six years had taken a turn for the worst! Tom carried a plan for salvation with him and would hand them out to those that were near! Tom started each morning like he had in basic training for the marines, with push ups and sit ups, 300 every day!

In May of 2007 we had traveled to Madison, WI so our son could have surgery. We stayed at a campground and met a man whose name was Phil Jacobus. Phil was riding a tike that was interesting to Sherry and he let her take it for a spin. While talking with Phil we found out he had much in common with me. He had worked in the electric industry, he was a Christian, he spent time in the summer at the UP Bible Camp at Little Lake and he too had major medical problems. Phil was fighting cancer, turning it over to God and was getting by for longer that the doctors gave him. Phil and I have been sending e-mails of encouragement and support every since! He has a blog in which he keep family and friend informed of what has been going on in his life. Phil would ride his tike on 100 mile rides long after the doctors told him he would not be able to do it!

His blog can be found at;

“Jesus Understands” by Beverly J. Anderson, that was posted on Phil’s blog.

“My Savior knows my every need, He notes the tears that fall; He knows when sorrow overwhelms, and heeds my anguished call.

He cares when I am faint of heart, and hope is almost gone; He understands my loneliness as grey clouds hide the dawn.

Tis then His nearness comforts me in such a blessed way assuring me He will share my grief, and never from me stray.

Within the shelter of His arms there’s refuge from my fears, as Jesus soothes my broken heart, and wipes away all tears.

His presence brings sweet peace to me, His love becomes the light that penetrates my troubled soul and lifts the veil of night!”

This poem says so much in so few words, summing up our savior! No matter what the trial that is placed in out life walk, Jesus and Father God are always with us!

“God Is In Control” by Chris Christensen found at:

God is in control

Oh, oh, oh

God is in control

His arm is still long

His strength is still strong

He has been there all along

God is in control

Oh, oh, oh

God is in control

Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, good will toward men. Well until next time this MI Charlie wishing each of you a God Blessed week.
