I think when I\/we walk with Jesus He is constantly blessing us by expanding our territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s with great sadness and great excitement I announce that God wants me to spend less time doing and more time being. Therefore, my writing of the weekly \u201cChallenge\u201d will have to be more sporadic and less consistent. I\u2019m thinking once or twice a month depending on what I hear the Lord asking me to do. I have a bucket list, and it has one thing on it; \u201cServe The Lord\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The \u201cChallenge\u201d has gone out faithfully every week for 25 years and has done it\u2019s best to serve God\u2019s purpose. It started back when websites were popping up all over and communication via the internet was on the rise. Now our world is blessed with access to daily podcasts, live-streaming and YouTube videos that are presented by our favorite pastors and religious leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019m emotional about this and rightly so. I love and appreciate each one of you for your prayers and support. Please know that I will keep the website alive for a time. I think they allow me to keep 6 or 7 years of&nbsp; \u201cChallenges\u201d on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Accounting of God\u2019s Word<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Until next time, blessings and love. :>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Absorbing God\u2019s Word \u201cJabez cried out to the God of Israel, \u201cOh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory!
