Time and Trust

How on earth does a month (almost) pass before I post another blog? Life gets in the way of blogging.

I tweeted about the church intern class I am privileged to be teaching. It is the first full Bible class I've taught since 1976. This one is on Basic Doctrine, based on a textbook written by Kevin Conner and published in 1980. Am thoroughly enjoying the discipline it takes to teach. The instructor learns a great deal as he/she studies. Lots of new revelation. God is magnificent, to say the least!

Marlys and I are steadfast in our reliance on God in this time of economic upheaval. We are in prayer continually for those who are being touched and hurt by the financial situations they face. Brad, our son, and his family feel it as they are on stike from Boeing. The mechanic's pay for this huge airplane manufacturer is great - when you're working, that is. We are able to help some, and are grateful for it. It eats at our retirement potential, but we know we serve Jehovah-Jireh.

We also are praying for the coming prez elections. We can't help but believe God has placed a believer (Palin) in the position she is in for His glory and His purpose. We can only pray for wisdom and, as Jesus prayed, His will to be done.
