Good evening everyone.  Today was a beautiful fall day.

This coming Friday through Sunday, I will be ministering at Crossway Assembly of God in Woodbourne, New York.  Pastor Ismael Berrios has been a friend mine since my youth pastoring days in the Hudson Valley many years ago.  Please pray that the Lord will bless these services and that the Word of God will bring encouragement and a fresh touch from the Lord.  People can certainly use both of those.

Yesterday, an interesting thing happened to me.  While talking with a pastor, my phone stopped working.  Well, actually, it half stopped working.  You see, the pastor could hear me but I couldn't hear him.  I had to go out and buy a new cordless phone today that is presently charging.  That episode made me wonder if sometimes that's how we treat our relationship with God.  He always hears us.  He knows everything.  But how many times do we not hear His voice when the Lord is talking to us.  Something is wrong on our end of the relationship that keeps us from clearly hearing His voice.  When that does happen, I'm grateful that we can ask the Lord to forgive us of our sins and our distractions that have allowed the communication lines to not work right.  Then, we can recharge our spiritual batties through the power of the Holy Spirit.  I want to always hear when God is talking to me.

Have a most blessed night.
