He’s On His Way
Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In
My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you.
I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I
will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be
also. And where I go you know, and the way you know. - John 14:1-3 NKJV NKJV.
Growing up on a farm it was rare to be able to go to town and visit my friends
except during school. One of those rare days arrived during the summer when I
was ten years old. My Dad was taking the tractor and mower to the big town of
Canute, Oklahoma (Population about 500.) to help clean up the empty lots. I was
allowed to take my bicycle along and spend the day having fun with my friends.
When the time came to go home, I asked my parents if I could ride my bike home.
It was four and a half miles to our farm. They agreed and they would be coming
along later. The first mile went fine, but I had to walk up Turkey Creek Hill,
and then I noticed both my tires were nearly flat. By the time I had pushed the
bike another mile I was hot, tired, and crying. That was when my parents drove
up. They could see I was upset and my Dad said, “Didn’t
you know we would be coming?” While I had
given up, my parents were on their way to pick me up.
Sometimes, most of the time, when bad things happen, we become impatient. All
we can see is what is going on in our lives right then. All we can feel is the
pain we feel then. What God would want you to know is this: He’s still there,
He’s still God, and He still loves you. He’s on His way to pick you up.

Prayer
Requests:
Please continue to pray for healing for Michelle Abetz,
Shane Hall, Brad, Damon D. & wife, Will J, Reta (my sister – she is
currently in hospital very ill), Beverly (Jeanie’s sister), Lexi McCalip and
Jeanie.
Please pray for God’s will to be
done in the upcoming election in the USA. Please pray for an end to the racial
hatred in the USA and that it will be replaced with peace and love. Many prayer
needs are posted at the Burning Bush website on the Prayer Request page. You
can also post your prayer requests there (Of
course, I am always in need of prayer - please pray for me. My prayer focus is
now that God will give me opportunities to preach. As the apostle Paul says, “…woe is me if I do not preach the gospel!”).
