Authoritywith power isn't always necessary, but it sure doesn't hurt.

Live it
Recently I've been converting and editing 8mm film belonging to my older brother from Christmas 1958. So I'm a little nostalgic today, thinking about the past. But in the process of going back, I remember many projects I started but failed to finish. Thankfully, I can say without reservation that God used my "wrong" turns to make me what I am today. Still, I'm testimony to the fact it takes a long time for some to learn from their mistakes.

On hearing this, some of you might think Prayertower is in danger of an early demise. After all, our Lord's parable of the unfinished tower seems to have perfect application . Don't worry. After ten years of limited resources and keeping my hand to the plow, I'm pleased to report the work is fully functional and growing. All the praise goes to God who has done it in and through me. When I cross the finish line, it will be by the grace of God and those of you who have encouraged me and prayed for me.

Pray it
Though the finish line is out of sight, I'm confident You will carry me across when the time is right. Until then, I plan to keep my eyes on Jesus and not the obstacles that are lining up in my way up ahead. To God be the glory - great things You have done, are doing and will do - in His name!
