Friday night I went to the Calvary Bible's Men's Retreat. It was at a place called Breeze's. Real nice motel. Got there on Friday night around 7pm and ate well. Then Doctor David Allen spoke. His main talk was on shame. He used 1 Kings 19. Which if you read it, it talks of Elijah, how he just finished killing 400 Bail prophets at Mount Carmel. Now this woman named Jezebel has a Elijah on the hit list. So he runs and hinds in a cave. Which I guess this is where he lost his focus on God. That is where the shame comes in at. Dr. Allen did a real nice job explaining how as we men are in shame about, what ever. We try to run and then we have lost the battle. I didn't stay at Breeze's it was out of my budget.
I didn't go Saturday to Breeze's, we had a big garage sale at the Camp. You can see all the goodies we tried to get rite of. We sold about half. We will need to do it again. The reason is we really don't need all this stuff at all. Plus really no place to store it.
Sunday morning, had a real nice breakfast at Breeze's. Then a guy came in that is a main banker here in the Bahamas. His name is Greg Bethal.(spelling ?) He spoke on how to get out of debt. He used a lot of the Proverbs to show us God's Word on that. Plus he explained how he runs his family when in 2008 was coming. How they saved their money and now look back at how it was God that showed him all this before. We all need to be debt FREE. That means even YOU out there that is still pay interest on credit cards and your home. By God's GRACE I don't have that problem. But looking back I really don't own any thing too.
Just a note I will be flying over to Fort Lauderdale, Fl. tomorrow morning. So if you would like to have coffee or what ever. Just drop me a line on my e mail, or call my cell number. Below are the contacts.
