Dodging the Bullet

Well, dear Pilgrim Pals, the day is almost over, August will soon be history and our mortgage will be paid. Another miracle at the 11th hour! God certainly provides in unusual way and He did it again today. You can read the details when I release my book.

What a week it's been! Whew! I'm glad it's over and yet I can't get my head around the fact that September is less than an hour away. Time has passed so quickly! It reminds me of an old hymn we used to sing back in the olden days ( aren't I sounding like a grandpa?):

Life at best is very brief,
Like the falling of a leaf
Like the binding of a sheaf,
Be in time.

Tonight Matthew and Nathan went with me to a Peterborough Petes scrimmage. Training camp began two days ago. The hockey season is just around the corner. It was refreshing to have players who haven't seen me for several months come up to me and ask when we're going to start MONDAY WE HAVE FISH, our twice-monthly chapel services.

Before I sign off I want to thank everyone who wished Matthew a Happy Birthday. We read PILGRIM PALS together and I told Matthew a little bit about each one who passed along greetings. THANK YOU!

Secondly, thanks for everyone who prayed for a miracle today. God answered and we praise Him for that.

Good night, dear ones, and, as I so often say, "Have a good and godly weekend!"
