My dear comrades, Now that I have your attention...... It has been just about two weeks since moves were announced, and except for my office, I have done very little in the way of packing. I spoke with a friends of mine who are also moving, and they told me that their house is 99% packed! They are ready to go! Today! My good friend Chris McGown's latest blog entry made me think a lot about these next few weeks. I do not need to "check out" early, but I do need to prepare. So basically, I am trying to pretend that I am not moving, and move the schedule and the mission along. Of course, in doing so, my last 14 days here in Sevierville are becoming event after event after meeting. It will all get done, and on June 22, I bid Sevierville farewell, and move across the border to my new appointment. The disciples often worried about their ministry. Jesus must have sensed this and He told them: 6:25 "Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink, nor about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? 6:26 Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 6:27 And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit to his span of life? This should be my life verse. The NIV says "worry", but sometimes, I like anxious more. Well, my mother is coming next week to help me pack. I better go get some boxes. God bless, Be well, and Keep in touch! |
