No Time

Would you believe me if I told you I don't have time to blog. Well, I don't, but here goes anyway.

Three weeks ago, Janet and I left for Florida. It was vacation time. Usually, my vacations consist of taking time off to do a week of prayer or something similar. This time we went to Steve and Carrie Klaus' condo in Bradenton Beach, Florida. It was heavenly. Steve and Carrie treated us like royalty and the weather, the beach and the ambiance was perfect. We had four heavenly days.

While there, we decided to contact Janet's sister, Dale and Sylvio Cristo. We knew they lived in Florida, but we knew not where. It turns out they live in . . . guess where?-- Bradenton, Florida. We could not have been more surprised. We spent two days with them biking, and soaking and talking, and of course, eating. Wonderful.

From there we navigated to Uchee Pines where I Chair an annual board. The board was easy and the fellowship was great.

Then on to the OCI Retreat in Cahutta Springs, GA. That was one of the best retreats I've attended. I had the opportunity to preach one sermon, which was well rec'd. As a matter of fact, I felt the Lord did something special for and thru' me that evening. I've been thanking Him ever since.

We spent three days at Denzil and Donna's house in Clinton TN. (We also spent a night with Don and Rumiko Johnson. Great hospitality.) You can only imagine that kind of home (Denzil's) in a dream setting. Beautiful, rich, immaculate, and relaxing. Denzil offered me his car to drive (once)--a Mercedes 550 sports car. I have never driven a faster car in my life. I hardly dared push it. Anyway, we are blessed.

We then attended the Southern ASI Chapter Convention. I preached twice there. Again, the Lord is very gracious toward me. My whole life is filled with gratitude. What more can I say.

Tomorrow, I go to Washington DC. Ted Wilson invited me to a special meeting on health. A day later, I fly back to Denver only to fly to Rhode Island for the Atlantic ASI Chapter for the weekend.

Now can you see why I don't have time to blog?

  1. Hi Dad, Did my first health club meeting this evening. It was a little disorganized but the people loved it. I hardly did any advertising so I didnt expect too many people but our room in town was so small that not too many could fit anyway. Well, it turns out that we maxed the room out at 13 people and I have to find a bigger room in town for our next meeting. The people were thrilled and excited and promised to come back. We'll see how this grows. Pray for us! Julie
