Season of Building!

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 speaks of different seasons we have in our lives and this particular season of our lives right now is a season of building.

Building better infrastructure for people to meet in. Here you see the hive of activity as the church building in Tagbak is taking shape even right now as you read this.  

Building up the workers here who are involved in spreading the Gospel. This takes place in many ways like fellowship over meals and coffees, time together in the Word, discipleship, passing on of information, working together for a common goal, loving each other in spite of personal differences, encouraging one another....... 

 
Building up the confidence and abilities of the church leaders through workshop-seminars and by availing them of helpful technology like computers.  Here you see Ann-ann preparing the first of the computers which are for church leaders in the various churches. They will be having a workshop to learn how to operate and use these computers early next month. This computer workshop will be fully conducted by ladies from the church here in Lapoc, who have become adept in the use of computers through their years of helping us on the translation and through their own hard work and study. 

So.....all sorts of building is going on during this season of our lives. Please pray for us that we will be skilled workers and that we have wisdom to keep our hands inside of our Lord’s so that the building we do lasts.  

Psalm 127:1  Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build......
