You are in a hectic season, but it will pass. A more bucolic season may lie ahead. We are not meant to retreat fully from the world of man into the world of God's beautiful creation, but there can be a place for quieter and simpler times in your week once this great task is completed and before the next great task begins.

I'm on a media fast for Lent (no non-Christian media for 40 days & nights). It helps tremendously as I work on two major projects in my own life and some family unrest on top of them while also pursuing God through reading, fellowship, and (not enough) prayer. Being caretaker for a handful of small animals (who are all doing well) is a comfort.

You've done amazing work on this project, and the goal is in sight!

Glorious afternoon SK - Oh, my! What a beautiful, beautiful message. Thank more than I can possibly say. And God bless you for taking care of those precious animals - God's beloved creatures, which so often model God's unconditional love. I pray for your peace and productivity during this blessed season of Lent. I feel so honored and so unworthy of your support and encouragement - and of the company of such an extraordinary community of fellow travelers. Onward and upward! - Love, Dr. G

Hello Dr G! You are in my prayers. You really have a lot going on in your life. The book you recommended looks interesting and I will read that on my next vacation (which, unfortunately, seems to be the only time I am able to read anything more than emails and texts). On my spring break vacation (such a blessing from God) I read the last book by Charlie Kirk, Stop, in the Name of God. This book is about the Sabbath rest and this came to mind as I read your email. If you find the time, you might find this book helpful. Thank you for all you do. Looking forward to the movie release that is very soon. You are a blessing to so many, take care of yourself.

Glorious Day Pamela - Thank you for your prayers, I do feel them. Charlie Kirk was an exceptional young man and his attention to the Sabbath is welcome now more than ever. I remember a time I burned out because I worked nonstop seven days a week. It was when I was at Good Morning America. I appeared Monday mornings, which meant I had to travel to NYC every Sunday. I hated it and when my contract came up for renewal I told my agent I didn't want to do it anymore. Mrs. G and I were just then becoming serious Christians. He thought I was crazy, putting my career on the line like that. But I held firm and ABC News was good enough to change my regular day to Tuesday! It might seem like a small thing to others but to me it was a huge milestone in my development as a serious Christian. Praise Jesus. - Love, Dr. G

Thank you for your honesty. Wow, your human. You are in our prayers and we owe you a debt of thankfulness for your powerful articles and writings. No wonder you feel the way you do. It's obvious you are trampling all over Satan's territory especially with your 77 Principles for the Biblical Father. God is using you in a great way, Satan is not happy so he attacks you and your mind. Thankfully you are "more than a conquer through Jesus Christ" By God's grace may you remain faithful as you train men how to be godly men, followers of Jesus Christ. God is with you and your reward will be great in heaven some day. MAY WE ALL BE FOUND FAITHFUL TOT THE END. To that end we will pray for you and your ministry as you glorify God and endeavor to break down Satan's strongholds in men around the world. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Glorious afternoon Lloyd - Thank you! Yes, there is no doubt that my ministry - speaking truth with love to a world desperately in need of both - riles the enemy. He attacks every way possible -through my work, family, and relationship with God. It's something I'm explaining to my Gen-Z son and I believe he's beginning to understand the enemy's wiles. But I will not be thwarted! Exhausted as I am, I will make certain that everything about "The Invisible Everywhere" is as good, as trustworthy, and as inspiring as possible. The Lord deserves my best effort; nothing less will do. Again, thank you for your prayers and words of encouragement. I accept them with deep, humble gratitude. - Love, Dr. G
