One More Week

It's Friday and my wife and kids are coming to see me in Louisville today! Pray for their safe travel. The seminary is supposed to have a Fall Kick-Off here on campus with party jumpers, fair rides, free food, etc. It is a big deal but it is scheduled to rain all day today. That's a downer.

There is only one more week until my doctoral exam/essay/interview, Friday, Sept. 12. Remember, this is PhD-day! Pray Hard Day! However this day turns out, we are trusting God. He has brought us this far. If He chooses to continue to open doors and allow us to enter the doctoral program . . . great. If not, that's OK, too. All we know is that we are trying to trust Him today, right now, hour by hour.

There are still no prospects to buy our house. Please make this a matter of prayer. This, too, is in God's hands. Pray that we will trust Him to sell it at the right time for the right price to the right people.

The psalm for today said, "Give ear to my words, O Lord, consider my groaning. Heed the sound of my cry for help, my King and my God, for to Thee do I pray. In the morning, O Lord, Thou wilt hear my voice; in the morning I will order my prayer to Thee and eagerly watch."

I believe the angels (and possibly saints in heaven) eagerly watch to see what God does on the earth. I probably should, too.

For His glory,
Jason
