I know May is already up and running, but it’s still worth posting this to briefly update you with what’s been going on.
As you might have noticed, what’s emerged from April is a series of Prayers for Change. That was birthed out of a conversation with a friend who was embarking on a project and I thought it would be good to support him with these prayers for a season. That’s formed a great discipline both in my own prayer life as well as for what to consider in my writing.
This time of year sees young people in this part of the world go through the exams that might have a significant bearing on their future. Those young people are understandably displaying signs of anxiety as the impending reality looms that they have days left before having to sit in a room for a couple of hours and write words that give the impression they have an idea about the subject material. It’s my privilege to come alongside and support one or two young people in preparing for that impending reality and so please remember those young people in your prayers that they will do well, but most importantly that they will not be overwhelmed by it all.
The Dryden Family are in good health, I’m happy to share. It’s a privilege to have a family as beautiful as mine and I endeavour not to take that for granted. There are a couple of rumblings about what could be taking place later on in the year with plans picking up pace this month. Yet when we’re closer to the realisation of that, I’ll be happy to share more on that.
It’s set to be a busy month for a variety of reasons, but it doesn’t mean anything to me unless I know it’s rooted in the amazing love of Jesus. So I’m working on that and enjoying the benefits of spending quality time in His company. The idea is that the time spent will be of benefit to those around me, so please keep me in your prayers where that’s concerned.
Thank you so much for reading this here blog, it’s something I appreciate a lot. Until whenever, keep on keeping on on the good flow.
