Influencing The Next Generation in The Best Way Possible

2-35pm

Mondays and  Thursday are ‘gym’ days. This vital part of my life unfolds at Imhoff Farm on the way to Kommetjie. The farm is a busy working farm, with goats and other farm animals, but they also have CAMELS. Today with it being such beautiful overcast weather, Sue and I took a run, but ground to a halt when we encountered one of the 5 at the fence….

We had to stop and visit. Sue tried to give her some grass, but she wasn’t very interested…

Sue pointed out this lady’s knees…

Very well worn knees! She’s been on them a lot!  I found a website that spoke about people who have influenced the direction of their children and grandchildren through prayer more than anything else. One of these people was a man by the name of  George McLusky. It is said that he prayed for  from 11am to 12 noon every day for the future generations to be faithful to God’s calling on their life. McLusky’s son  had only one child, but he also prayed. According to the website, he had torn leather on the toes of his shoes for spending so much time on his knees. I can imagine his knees were as tough as the camel’s. His  child, a son is still alive today… James Dobson, founder of Focus on the Family, heard daily by about 250  million people across the world. What a legacy his father and grandfather have left through their prayers for him.

John 14:13-14 – words of Jesus…

“Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it”

Ask.

I had a wonderful visit from my friend Alison today. Inspirational! Thanks Alison!

Last night’s telethon went off with a few technical glitches on the way. The giving is slow. The totals not as high as I would like (and I’m used to at CCFm!), but times are hard and the audience is different. We’ll see what happens tonight. Wayne is coming through as well! It will be great to be onair with him again! I’ve got to get moving if I’m going to be on time.

Keep the smile going.

God bless you!

In His Grip,
