    When I applied my mind to know wisdom and to observe the labor that is done on earth--people getting no sleep day or night-- then I saw all that God has done. No one can comprehend what goes on under the sun. Despite all their efforts to search it out, no one can discover its meaning. Even if the wise claim they know, they cannot really comprehend it.
Ecclesiastes 8:16, 17

     Did the laundry-mat chore in Lincoln City, Oregon. Then published the newsletter from the Foursquare church where I've been staying this past week. Followed by a wonderful fellowship lunch with my dear friend Darrell.

     Over to the Christian Radio Station in Newport for the yearly on-air-interview about the ministry with the owner, Scott. Then a short drive inland to Siletz, Oregon for the senior (Meals on Wheels) lunch with my Sister in Christ, Robin.

     Ended the day in Siletz at the home of Scott & Keli.

          Thursday July 27 th ~

     Drove to Yachats, Oregon and sang at the "Sea-Aire" assisted living facility.

     Every year they give me a place to park, plug-in and even open up an empty room so I can shower. Sweet.

          Friday July 28 th ~

     Drove to Florence, Oregon and shared the "My Journey Through Israel" presentation on the big TV in the lobby of the "Spruce Point" assisted living facility. These thoughtful folks also provide a place to park, plug-in and shower.

     Drove to Reedsport, Oregon and parked at the Foursquare church, as in years past.

          Sunday July 30 th ~

     During worship, I'd been given the opportunity to share about Israel. Unfortunately, two minutes into the video, their computer started updating. Rendering the overhead projection system useless for the rest of the service. So Terry (Pastor) had me break out the guitar and share a bit in song.

    

And so begins another week.

May The Lord Our God
Guard, Guide And Direct You.

    Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. Such "wisdom" does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice. But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.
James 3:13-18

    "But if a wicked person turns away from all the sins they have committed and keeps all my decrees and does what is just and right, that person will surely live; they will not die. None of the offenses they have committed will be remembered against them. Because of the righteous things they have done, they will live. Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares the Sovereign LORD. Rather, am I not pleased when they turn from their ways and live?

    They went to a place called Gethsemane, and Jesus said to his disciples, "Sit here while I pray." He took Peter, James and John along with him, and he began to be deeply distressed and troubled. "My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death," he said to them. "Stay here and keep watch." Going a little farther, he fell to the ground and prayed that if possible the hour might pass from him. "Abba, Father," he said, "everything is possible for you. Take this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will."
Mark 14:32-36
