Just wonder'n if y'all can say a prayer for Clark Pinnock. Been battling some depression. Thought it had lifted. But has gone back to battling it again. My visit with him was cut short a few weeks back because of it. Times like that you need to reserve your energy. I totally understand as this is something I have battled in the past. I'm sure some of you empathize as well.

I'll pray as well. I loved "Flame of Love" It was one of the first books that I read that started me on this journey. I can empathize. It is a time to rest in Jesus. The valleys are hard places to be, but often they are the places where we grow. I'll pray that it will be a transforming time for him, and that He will know that the God of all comfort is with Him, and that others are lifting Him up in prayer as well.

I personally have appreciated having this place to share prayer requessts. The board is personal and I appreciate that.

God Bless you Brandon. It is good to have friends to walk alongside in times like that.

Me???

Well, things are looking up. Things are on the up and up. I have been promoted in my job with the local transit company and will be making decent money as well as attaining better benefits. But what is important with this is that it avails me opportunities on a personal scale. If you would like, I will send you an e-mail to give you a heads up in terms of details and what I believe to be the direction that the Lord is leading me in. Inspite of all that has gone on in my life (as you know), I'm a blessed man. What can I say? Wink

Thanks for asking.

Brandon

Brandon,

Sounds like there are some wonderful changes happening in your life. Just to know that you are a "blessed man." How wonderful. Cool

God Bless,

Well, Clark passed through town a couple of days ago on his way back home from Florida. Didn't get to visit with him, but he did tell me that he thinks his depression may be lifting. Just wanted to give a heads up. Let's continue to pray.

Oh, and by the way, pray that I get my icon for my signature back. I can't seem to locate it anywhere. POW, can you help? Big Smile
