   Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust."

     Started this week in Center Point, Texas where I published the newsletter from the "Trinity Church". Drove on down the road to the "Riverhill" facility in Kerrville, Texas and ministered for the folks.

     Then about a hundred miles to Lakeway, Texas to a Home Church type gathering where I was given the honor of sharing a bit.

          Tuesday November 24 th ~

     Breakfast with Barb (leader of this awesome ministry "Luke 4:18"). Then to the "Brookdale" facility in Lakeway where I was allowed to share in their memory care section.

     Finally, on into Austin to (Richard's) an old friends' place, where I've been given a spot to park, plug-in, shower and such throughout the years when I'm in this area.

          Wednesday November 25 th ~

     The prescription eye glasses I use for driving are about ten years old and falling apart. So, I went to the Walmart eye doctor for an exam and new prescription. She proclaimed my eyes healthy.
      I ordered a new pair of glasses which should arrive in a week or so.

          Thursday November 26 th ~

     Thanksgiving Day! Enjoyed a relaxing day of watching ball games and eating too much.

          Friday November 27 th ~

     Taking another holiday off.

     Joined some old friends for their Saturday morning Bible study. Many years ago an awesome Pastor, Carl (now passed on), started this unique study. With 31 chapters in the book of Proverbs, they focus each Saturday on the chapter which corresponds to the date (1-31) of that particular Saturday. Today it was chapter 28.

          Sunday November 29 th ~

     Attended "Jubilee Christian Center" in Austin, Texas where I got to see a few old friends.

   I will praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, my God; I will sing praise to you with the lyre, Holy One of Israel. My lips will shout for joy when I sing praise to you-- I whom you have delivered.
Psalm 71:22, 23         
          Monday November 16 th ~

     Drove a short way (60 miles) across southeast New Mexico. A major storm coming through with high winds. Stopped in Tatum (a small town with a free city campground) to ride out the storm.

     Sent out the weekly update yesterday, but unable to publish it on the website. Turned out that the web-host (yahoo) was making changes which would not allow editing until they'd gotten their act together.

          Tuesday November 17 th ~

     Drove south to Lovington, New Mexico and sang at the "Good Samaritan" nursing home. Then on to a campground in Hobbs which had wifi where I was able to publish the newsletter on the website.

          Wednesday November 18 th ~

     Crossed into Texas to the town of Seminole where I was able to minister at their rather large nursing home.

          Thursday November 19 th ~

     Drove a couple hundred miles across west Texas. A lot of "Oil Boom'n" going on.

          Friday November 20 th ~

     In Kerrville, Texas I was allowed to share at the "Villagio" memory care facility for a sweet group of folks.

          Saturday November 21 st ~

     Hooked up yesterday with friends at the "Trinity Church" in Center Point, Texas. They gave me the use of the double wide mobile home behind the church which is nowadays used for classes on Sunday.

     Before daybreak I sat-up the T.R.S. (temporary recording studio) in the master bedroom and recorded the final song ( "Power in the Blood" Click to hear. ) for the Cd I've been working on. Finished by mid-afternoon. Packed the equipment back into the van and started thinking about designing the jacket cover for this Cd number eleven.

          Sunday November 22 nd ~

     Attended worship services here at Trinity where I was given the opportunity to share in song and testimony, including a short slide presentation about the Australian Mission Trip. Followed by lunch with some of the members.

     Then in the evening, several of the local churches gathered at the school cafeteria for a Thanksgiving fellowship meal. I enjoyed the honor of leading some medleys we could all sing along with. 

    

And so begins another week.

Guard, Guide And Direct You.

   If anyone teaches a different doctrine and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching that accords with godliness, he is puffed up with conceit and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy craving for controversy and for quarrels about words, which produce envy, dissension, slander, evil suspicions, and constant friction between people of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain.
