I had hoped to take a sabbatical back in March...
...and I did make an attempt at it, but I guess I didn't get all the rest I needed. Therefore, I'm still in desperate need of a time for rest, recuperation and refreshing. But with all the responsibilities I have involving both my work assignments plus being one of the leaders of a prison church, it's difficult to get time off.
Obviously, I could use a vacation. However, as a prison inmate, there's no place I could go to. I'm stuck here, and I have to make the best of it.
At present, I feel physically, emotionally and spiritually drained. For the past several weeks, for instance, I've found myself stumbling around, being forgetful and exhausted. I have little strength, and I have a cold that I cannot seem to get rid of.
So for periods such as this I need to trust in the Lord, rely more upon His grace, and persevere in my current predicament knowing that in due time my strength will return.
