Some Stuff

I apologize for the delay in updating this thing! I'll try to briefly summarize what's been going on since my last post.

My meetings have been great, traveling has been good, fellowship has been sweet! I've been mostly in the Pittsburgh area, but I did travel east to the Philadelphia area last week.

Car information: Thanks to my Uncle and his family, my car no longer leaks oil! That is a huge blessing! So now it is running extra smoothly - though I dare say it could probably use a trip to the car wash :) I might try and get that done tomorrow!

Music stuff: I've been able to put some good time in on my saxophones - and have enjoyed being able to use them often while ministering in churches. I am hoping to get an arrangement or two done for the soprano sax within the next several weeks.
I am also working on writing a song for my sister. Please pray that that will go well!

Today was a beautiful day, so I took my bike up to North Park and did the trail around the lake. Afterwards I was able to make some balloon animals/hand out wordless book bracelets for a few kids at the playground there. I was also able to talk with their mother and give her a bridge tract.

Well, I think that's about it for now! Have a super day! And keep your eyes on the Lord - He gives the strength to make it through each and every day!

When the Rains Descend

When the Rains Descend
Go ahead and grab your umbrella, because in life, there will be times when you journey through the storms. You see, in this world in which we live, the rains will fall. That is a guarantee. Trials will come - and they are going to come to everyone. Just because you are a Christian, don't think for a moment that life is going to be easy. There will still be pain, sorrow, and heartache. The good news, however, is that, as a Christian, you do not have to weather these storms alone. You have a solid foundation in Christ.

When the Rains Descend is a collection of poems written to be an encouragement to you as you face the downpours of life. May you rest in the Lord and grow closer to Him day by day.
