Now please pray that I will be able to “gear down” and “slow down” for a couple of weeks.  I feel so good with no pain at all that it will be hard for me not to “hit the ground running” at my normal pace.  As I have already shared with some of you personally, ‘Pacemaker’ to means that I can “increase the pace” of my life and ministry – just like a re-wired Energizer Bunny on steroids!  However, the Doctors have given me a stern warning to take it slower for the rest of the month.  And Patt has “nailed my shoes to the kitchen floor” so I cannot move out too quicly!  She also asked the doctors for a remote control on my Pacemaker so she can “dial me down” when I get to hyper – which of course never happens to a laid-back guy like me!  So she requests prayer as she monitors my level of activity.

Finally, I will be using this “down time” to do a lot of emails, correspondence and phone calls – so write or call me1 I hope to also be able to complete several more books that I have been working on over the past year: Follow The Leader, The Rise & Fall of Satan, The Grace of Giving, The New Direction in Missions, 21 Principles for Living and Giving.  So those will keep me busy and fulfilled1

In addition, I have several of our key national partners coming here for the month of October: Murli Menon from India, Stakwell Yurenimo from Kenya and Ibrahim AgMohamed from Timbuktu.  Then Bishop Trevor Manhanga will be coming the first week of November.  Since I will not be able to travel and speak with them as usual, I will be coaching from my office at home.  So do be praying for each of these brothers.

Thanks again for your love and prayers that God has used to bring me through this surgery…]

In His Healing Love,
