Teach us to number our days, that
we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90:12
This year has flown by...
we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90:12
This year has flown by...
It's now the final month of 2003. Looking back over the past eleven months, I can say that God has been faithful. He has brought me a long way, through storms and sunny days, and through intense spiritual battles that have always ended in great spiritual victories. As I am going forward, by God's grace, I am pressing on.
But because of all that is going on in my life at this time, there will be some things that I will have to put on hold in December. I will probably do only a small amount of Journal writing this month. I have correspondence to handle instead, especially as the holidays approach. I am also working on several writing projects.
With the Lord's help I am preparing messages on depression, suicide, youth violence and gangs. A friend wants to help in getting these messages printed into tract form so that they could be distributed to different places as opportunities present themselves.
And as for my work assignment at the prison's Intermediate Care Program (E-North), during the month of December more of my time needs to be spent with the residents. This is because of the increase in cases of depression among them.
During the holidays, feelings of isolation, separation, and depression are more prevalent. So, I want to be there for these guys should any of them be struggling with these things, or if they have other needs such as writing a letter home.
Some of these men may need a listening ear, or they will want me to pray for them.
