Time to Focus

We've got a big week that we're starting here at our house -- lots of ministry decisions that we're believing God to direct us in, a two month road trip starting next week, and a myriad of details as we prep for doing missions mobilizations at colleges in Jan/Feb.  To help myself focus and watch my time this week, I'm signing off Facebook and my blog reader.  (Honestly, it's easier to sign off FB than the blogs I read, but both can be time distractions.)  I may drop a blog post myself here or there with praises or prayer requests, but if you have anything urgent that needs to be communicated to me, email me.  (My yahoo address is at the side if you don't have my other address.)  Will you pray for us?  Pray for spiritual protection for us, for time to spend seeking the Lord, and for rest.  We've been having trouble sleeping recently for no discernible reason.  Thanks!

Praise for today: Praise God for a local business that let us use their printer to print out our December newsletter!  Finding a printer has been a matter of prayer for some days, but now we are thankful for the stack of newsletters on my table waiting to be printed!

Encouraging verses for today from Psalm 9:
But the Lord abides for ever... He is a stronghold in times of trouble.  And those who know Thy name will put their trust in Thee.  For Thou, O Lord, hast not forsaken those who seek Thee!
