Sunday had the pleasure of fellowship with the saints in Waterford. Despite severe trials the brethren exude a warmth in the Spirit. Our brother Chris facilitated a earnest, helpful discussion based on Psalm 51.
Received a thoughtful, mature e-mail based on James 1:2-8 from our brother Nic. He had many insights, which I urged him to share with others.
On Monday the Lord met my housing need with a Christian family in central MA. I'm in the Mexico suite. Some people's creative ability on a shoestring is amazing.God is faithful. What a stark contrast from my last situation, where I felt like a prisoner most of the time. It will take a little getting used too. Thanks for all of your prayers in this regard.
Looking forward to reading "What Jesus Demands from the World," by John Piper.
Also adjusting to the aging process. Despite every effort (diet & exercise) I feel the decline. "When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?" (1 Cor. 15:54-55 ESV)"But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." (1 Cor. 15:57
