Praise God! What a glorious blessing! Vacation Bible Study was wonderful! We had a total of 65 students and three, that we know of, got saved during the two weeks. |
Now I need to refocus my mind. I was gone from home every day for some long hours. I have to jump in and get my house in order. Plus I need to concentrate on getting ready for vacation. We haven't been able to take a family vacation in five years. It used to be routine as we did it every year. Now I have to remember everything I need to do! Oh no!!!! I have to think! Ohhhh, my head! |
I may not be able to update this again for a few weeks. Once I get back on track I will be back to the weekly schedule again. Please be patient with me! |

I'm back from vacation! I am relaxed and recharged! It was great! We went to the Colorado River. It was hot and humid, I got a sunburn, there were wind/rain/dust storms almost every night, our boat was malfunctioning, the water was LOW, we ran out of gas on the way home, and I had a GREAT time! I didn't allow anything to bother me. I spent a lot of time reading my Bible and praying. I kept thanking God for allowing me to go on this vacation. I kept thanking Him for being with me. It's amazing how God's love can make everything else totally insignificant! |
Now that vacation is over, I once again need to refocus my mind. I had let a lot of things slide around the house during Vacation Bible School. I've got to dive in and get caught up. (Come to think of it, have I ever been "caught up?" I believe that would be a resounding, "NO!" Ha Ha Ha) |

I apologize for not updating this Bible study last week. I was not able to minister to you in the spiritual condition I was in. It is a good thing I got recharged and refreshed on my vacation. It enabled me to get slam dunked without totally losing my sanity. |
Always keep in mind that the more you grow in the Lord, the more effective you get in the Kingdom of God, and the more you minister to others then satan has a bigger interest in your life. That scum will try to take you down. He will try to disable your effectiveness as a disciple of Christ. The good news is that Jesus has already defeated satan. You have the right and the power to rebuke satan in Jesus' name! Satanhas no business messing with you and you need to let him know! He is hoping that you don't know. |
We are going through a major heat wave this week. This year's weather sure has been goofy. I guess this is all still related to "El Nino." I couldn't wait for summer to finally get here and dry things out and now. . .hurry up winter and cool things off!
