Picture of my home workstation and my plans for the near future

Most of my waking hours are spent here at this workstation
.
The amazing desk was a gift from a neighbor that was moving to a place where it would not fit.

The AA slogans on the wall are my useful reminders.
First Things First
Easy Does It
Think Think Think

The sign by my laptop says:
You are enough.

I have recently begun to stand at my desk and put the laptop on the top shelf.

My challenge in the short term is to prioritize my more than 30 appealing major educational projects and select just 3 for focus during February.

I must gradually design and build systems to balance the pursuit of my short term and long term goals.

After wrestling with God for months last year, He won. I will start with teaching about prayer. I wanted to start with the four gospels.

I am far from an expert in payer but I genuinely desire to pray better. So the name in my files is Let's Pray Better.

I will teach what I have learned and experienced in the last 40 years. Then as others pray for me and we interact online much more will be revealed.

I did not want to start with prayer because it is such a fuzzy and complicated subject. Thankfully God has inspired some simple graphics to help me teach what the Bible says.

I did not want to start with prayer because it will make the devil mad. I am not one to pick a fight. I would rather avoid conflicts. But spiritual warfare is in the Bible as well as in the lives of those who pioneer missional works.

I understand and accept that starting with prayer is wise. Inspiring, equipping, and encouraging others to pray better will lead to faith building testimonies. As I learn to pray better and others pray better that will have all kinds of ripples. Plus I will gain the support base of prayer warriors for other plans in my files. 

CONCLUSION

I request your best prayers now and later as the Holy Spirit prompts you.

My 3 ongoing prayer requests are to
think clearly
choose wisely
be grateful.

THANKS again for all your prayers.

Shalom

John
