All is well!

Howdy yall, boy that sounds really country! I just wanted to let everyone know that all is well at the Henry house. I went through surgery last Friday and everything was great! I did so well that I got to come home the next day...I know, can you believe it! I was told that I would at least be there for 3 days. God is so good, I went for my check-up Thursday and the Dr. told me that all my pathology reports came back negative! To God be the glory. I thank all of you who prayed for me and I ask that you continue to do so. I am recovering so quick...I will be able to return to singing in another week...and I have decided that I will be attending NQC after all! I just can't get over how good I feel....I know what your thinking...trust me I am trying not to over do it!

I just want thank Jesus that He watched over me through this very scary time in my life. This time last year I lost my dad. He had cancer and I was facing that I could have it as well. I say this often...God works in His way and in His will and in His time! Proverbs 3-5,6 is my favorite and I stand on it daily. He still has work for me to do and I am blessed to be able to continue to do it!

Again, I thank all of you for the cards, the kind words of encouragement and the prayers! I hope to see you really soon....

Until Then,
Dedra

WHAT A WEEKEND!!!

In my first couple of months of singing with TST, I have to say this past weekend was the most exciting yet. Friday night, we were in concert with Hope's Journey, Enlisted, and Josh and Ashley Franks at Bethany Christian Church. We had an awesome night and the spirit was moving in every performance. I was able to meet some intersting people this weekend.

Many times in life it's easy to get depressed, discouraged, and downtrodden. I'm glad to know that I can, as the bible says, approach the throne room boldly and lay my needs at his feet. No matter what life may throw at us, we always have the promise, that Across the River we'll be healed forever more.

In the powerful name of an almighty king
