Well, I am at the end of the ministry in New England and Montreal. Of course I will be back in Montreal this fall. I finished the work at the Word of Life conference center in Schroon Lake, NY yesterday. Tonight I will be in Vermont to present the gospel at a Legacy Five concert. So I would appreciate your prayers for that. Tomorrow I head up to Montreal for the weekend there again. On Saturday I will be jet boating with some friends of mine and then having a meeting later that day with them to work through some ministry stuff with them. Then on Sunday I have two more church ministry events. Next week I am planning to take some time off to rest before heading to Maine for two more events there. I will finally be driving back to Tennessee August 31 with an arrival in TN planned for September 1. Yeah!
I would certainly value your prayers for all of this. It makes a difference!
It has been a great summer. It has certainly been a pressure cooker to fit all of this stuff in. What is cool is that I can see where God has been doing a great work in my life through all of this. It has been crazy busy and the stress load was much higher than I expected. I feel like I have been in the refiner's fire and the dross has come to the surface. I recharge when I am alone and there has been almost no time for that. There is nothing like total exhaustion to show your worst side! But the great thing is that when the Lord does that, you can also see how he is purifying and removing that dross from your life. I am so grateful for this. I can see where this summer has been a great benefit to me and I am certainly better for it. Through out all of it I have tried to maintain my regular time in the word and prayer. That time with God is what has made all the difference. I have had some great long talks with God about all of it and I am so grateful for that relationship in my life. I can't imagine how folks make it without Christ.
Alright, have a great day!

I can definitely identify with needing time alone to recharge, not getting it (try 4 kids home for the summer) and deepening my realization of my need for God. Wanted to let you know my 10 year old son, Daniel, and I sang "You Are" for special music at church today! Love that song. Anytime you are driving through Vermont, feel free to visit the farm--we have a camper if you need a place to stay and we'd love to see you!
