Being that I have been in prison for thirty-four years, I think it is both wise and practical that I begin to prepare for my retirement...
But they that wait upon the Lord
shall renew their strength... Isaiah 40:31a As November comes to a close I am still undergoing a period of physical tiredness... Come and see what our God has done,
what awesome miracles He does for His people. Psalm 66:5 NLT Because we're on what is called a "limited program schedule" due to the long Thanksgiving weekend, I was able to go to the outdoor recreation yard this morning on what is an unseasonably mild and sunny day for late November... In every thing give thanks:
for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. I Thessalonians 5:18 I have been reminded by the Lord Himself to be thankful for all things... Today's chapel service went smoothly. My assistant, brother Philip, helped me to do the Communion. He and I served the bread (matzo) and wine (grape juice), the elements which for us represented the Lord's broken body, and His shed Blood...
I just spent several hours sitting at my little table top writing letters to several friends in Australia, and also to friends in Turkey and Great Britain...
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
they shall prosper that love thee. Psalm 122:6 Jerusalem is the city of peace. But war could be near... First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all,
that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world. Romans 1:8 Yesterday I wrote about the media and a new wave of recent articles and television programs that treat me with disdain and contempt... In a recent letter from a friend I was reminded that my writing needs to be primary now. It so happens, as well, that lately I have been taking a lot of hits (attacks) from the media...
Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm
in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble; for the day of the Lord cometh, for it is nigh at hand. Joel 2:1 This year is soon coming to its end. I hope that, in whatever time I have left on this earth, I can become a more spiritually productive Christian than I am now... |
