January Update

Dear Friends,
Not only has this past year gone by quickly, but this past decade. Things are happening so fast, it is almost impossible to keep up. The good news is that we don’t have to. We need to remember that the most important area in our life is our relationship with our Father. He said to be still and know that He is God. Our trust is in Him. I recommend that we take a deep breath, settle down, and tune in to what He is saying. The good news is that He is talking. We just don’t hear Him all the time. His words do not have to be prefaced by “Thus says the Lord”. If fact, most of the time He speaks to us through various events in our lives. He gives gentle nudges towards the areas He desires for us to find. I am going away for a few days to spend time in His presence. I believe that it is more important now than ever. I am busier than I have ever been, but I need to close the door on interruptions and schedules.
I want to pray for you and your needs during these days I will be away. I also intend to just sit in His presence and listen. If there is something you want me to agree with you about, please send me a note. I have many requests already. I am expecting God to give answers through many avenues.
I met this past weekend with a number of people in a planning session concerning Kingdom business. We intend to launch a new ministry in the next several months and believe that it will be a conduit for business people to share their values with others in a way that will bring increase.
I have a couple of trips this summer planned for Guatemala and Costa Rica. There is probably room for you. If you want more information, just let me know and I will fill you in.
My upcoming schedule:
January 17: Celeste Road Church, Citronelle, AL
January 20-23:Fasting and Prayer
January 24-25: First Assembly of God, Tuscaloosa, AL (Men’s meeting on Monday night)
January 31: First Assembly of God, Charleston, SC
February 7: Bethel Church, Orangeburg, SC
February 14-16: Grace Covenant, Carrollton, GA
February 19-21:Oberlin Fellowship, Oberlin, LA
February 26-28: Lake Wylie Assembly of God, Lake Wylie, SC
We are grateful to God for the blessings of friendships and supporters that God has given to us. I pray that 2010 will be a great year to extend the Kingdom of God.
Reaching Nations, Changing Lives,
Ronald
