Dear friends,
“For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord bestows favor and honor. No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly” – Psalm 84:11.
I am 84 today and Psalm 84 comes to mind—especially verse 11. If I told you how often I think of and apply this verse, you would think I am surely exaggerating! But I actually think of Psalm 84:11 every day – at least six days out of any week. Why? It is because I believe these words to be true: that God only wants what is best for us and He will not withholdwhat is good for us if we seek to please Him.
Thank you for your prayers. I am continually overwhelmed that you pray for us and also when I learn of someone who prays for us whom I have never met. Such a word moves me no end. If the Apostle Paul would ask for prayer, so can I.
I pray this every day: “Hear the prayers of those who pray for us and answer their prayers for themselves”. That is my prayer for you every day.
Louise and I have been invited back to London next year, but we are praying to know for sure if this is God’s will.
For some reason God has opened doors for me in the Far East – Shanghai, Hong Kong, Korea and – so it would seem – Japan and Singapore. I am wanted in Beijing, but we are not sure what God’s will is regarding this. I will speak at the Feast of Tabernacles in Israel in October of this year. Please pray that I will be a blessing to those who attend. Nashville will be our base from 31 July.
I am exceedingly grateful to God for the open doors and His enabling grace at my age. My next book is Word and Spirit– available in October. I am now finishing up For an Audience of One which will come out next year. Our son TR, who handles my website and sale of books, continues to travel with me to most places.
God bless you all. Again, thank you for your prayers. From Louise, TR and Annette, Toby, Timothy and Tyndale, Rex and Melissa.
All our love.
