Travel 2

Well, the travel began on time on Friday, proceeded to Sacramento where I had the great privilege of meeting many Russian Pentecostal leaders, returned on time to the Harrisburg area, and continued this past week conducting the Sectional Councils in half the district with the other half coming this week. Friday Marjie and I shared with the Master's Commission in Gettysburg, conducted the LDR Cohort in Irwin, PA followed by a Pastor/Board Banquet and time of sharing in Albion, PA. God is doing incredible things and it is a great joy to be a part of the building of His kingdom.

I enjoy being with others, especially my comrades in ministry. However, the travel does become wearisome. In the midst of busyness, how can the follower of Jesus remain focused on the simplicity of the walk with Christ rather than become distracted by the constant motion and change of location? Some life styles lend toward seclusion and isolation which can provide a wonderful opportunity to spend quality time with the Lord. Other life styles seem to be in constant motion which can distract from personal intimacy with Christ. How do you balance your schedule to ensure your time with the Lord does not take a secondary role to the requirements of your responsibilities?
