The Lord is working all things together for the good of His people always. Romans 8:28 Due to our limitations we do not always see it.

This Wednesday (June 25) the Lord revealed His working. It was getting very hot, 77F, when I checked at 1p.m. and so I decided to go home to install the window air conditioner so my family would not be too hot. When I went into the basement I found a puddle and found out that the pipe going out to the sewer was blocked. It wasn't there a couple of days before when I went down into the basement, so this was recent. Mr. Rooter came and got things unblocked.

Thanks to the Lord for increasing the temperature, which led me to go home to find the mess earlier. If it had of been a couple of days later, the mess would have been bigger and the damage greater.

Last week's fun

Ken & David went out on Saturday June 14th, going through one of the mobile home parks in Rhinelander, knocking on doors and spreading the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Tuesday June 17th, Mike and I went out talking to folks in downtown Rhinelander. We had a couple of good discussions, and also a couple of discussions where people wanted to talk about religion in general. Those folks just want you to talk and talk and talk and talk....and they do not want the conversation to be concentrated on salvation through Jesus Christ but on many other things. They are like talkative in Pilgrim's Progress by John Bunyan.

When you encounter someone like that, don't let them manipulate the conversation by steering you away from Christ. The best thing to do is to keep getting the conversation back to Jesus Christ and their need for Him.

Time for reaching out with the gospel

Jesus Christ deserves to be made famous in Rhinelander. (Spelling is Canadian. ) Although we have lived in the USA for almost 5 years, my spelling has not changed.

The weather is no longer a hindrance. Health is no longer a hindrance. There are even some young folks interested in getting out and sowing the seeds of God's amazing grace. This gets me excited. When God's word is spoken, no matter where, I get excited.
