A few weeks ago I was enabled to go part-time at my tentmaking work. God is to be praised for this as he has brought us to that point. I also praise him for the opportunity to devote more time to prayer.
I have been deeply saddened over the years that I have not been able to devote much time to prayer. Mornings were rushed to get off to work and after the children are in bed I pretty much collapsed in my chair. Now I get a good hour to devote to the needs of the church, community and broader world.
I wish I could begin a chart and see how the church is affected. I know that it will grow (both spiritually and numerically) as a direct result. But I wish I could compare pre-part-time growth to post. It would be an interesting contrast, I'm sure.
