Yesterday Kevin, the regular USPS guy in my place dropped by a package. It contained gallons of liquid rubber to seal a portion of my leaking roof. I greeted him at the door and we had our conversation. The air was cold and the sky cloudy. I have my 2 kids with me running from the room to see him, too and curious about the box.
I asked him how his wife and how life has been. His wife had cancer. But in remission. I remember him saying, “I have a decent job but I struggle to get by, how difficult it is for those who rely on government and those who have no income.” We are in agreement our hope is in the Lord.
After he left I climbed up, swept the area where I suspected the water runs through and down to our floor. I was grateful for a friend in CA who guided me through the process via Zoom.
It drizzled today. Then a fog enveloped the northeast of SC. I woke up late because I was invited to speak to the One True God group in Palawan, Philippines. I was able to join a friend in Australia for the regular Friday 8:15pm Bible study via Zoom then by 10:30pm US Eastern Time Zone, I preached to our brethren in Palawan.
I am grateful to the Lord that I see and had fellowship with a small yet faithful company of people living in the countryside and eager to worship the Only True God and His Son. I spoke to them from the book of Acts 1:8. The Acts of the Holy Spirit.
So I slept past 12 MN and I woke up around 8am today. I thought of regular folks like Kevin and others. The hopelessness and desire for a better life and a better land. I prayed in earnest for them.
2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV, “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
The text above speaks volumes.
A Blessed Sabbath to you. We will see you in an hour and a half via Zoom for our Sabbath service 11am US Eastern Time Zone. ID: 916 891 5581 PW: TrueGod.
Sincerely and prayerfully in the Blessed Hope,
