BoggsMobile at Prevost

A few pictures of the BoggsMobile at Prevost in Nashville. It was
on a different kind of lift this time. We were having shocks put on
and did it ever make a difference in the ride.

Thomasville, Georgia

We are having a great time of fellowship and revival at New Hope
Holiness Church in Thomasville, Georgia. We love Pastor Tony Walker
and his dear wife Sis. Annie so very much. Their church folks are
pretty good too! I can't wait to see what all God has in store for
them this week. Our God is an awesome God!

A summery of the two service we attended.
Pentecostal Fire Youth Conference 2010

Friday Morning
Bro Aleaka Holt opened the service. Bro. David Webb greeted the people.
Bro. Danny Taylor Reminded us why we came to PFYC, for the Fire of God to be rekindled in our lives. Higher Ground a group of Boys from the Ozark Bible Institute sang.
The Choir from Jersey Holiness Church in Jersey, Georgia sang. Bro. David Brimm introduced Bro. Brent Gabbard. He preached a challenging yet encouraging sermon on
"The Guide Every Youth Group Needs"
Then the PFYC Ensamble sang.
Bro. Ryan Ralston introduced Bro Lloyd Shuecraft. His message was titled "A Sacrifice Between Hai and Bethel." It encouraged us to not look at the world and all the things the devil offers. But to turn our backs to the enticing world and look the Power of God at Bethel. Then there was a great altar service!

Friday Night.

Bro. David Brimm opened the service with announcements. Then Bro. David Webb prayed over the services and encouraged us to worship. Bro. Brent Markee led a congregational song.
Bro. Ryan Ralston introduced Bro. Tracy Holden to take the offering. During the offering Bro Tracy Boyd reminded us to hold to the promise God. God may not promise a smooth road to travel "But He Did Say" He would be there. Then Sis. Shea and the girls sang The Promise which is a song on their new project that is now available. I'm sure I will have more on their new CD in a few days..
The Choir from Savannah Holy Church of God sang. Many were praying and blessed during the singing.
Bro. David Webb introduced Bro. Douglas Meadow preach. He titled it "The Path That Leads to Pentecost". We had a altar service at the end where the Pentecostal wind blew through the place. It was great!

I need to say a HUGE thank you to my Dad for making it possible to attend one day of the 2010 PFYC!
What is Pentecostal Fire Youth Conference? It is an awesome meeting held every April in Louisville, Kentucky. Friday night there were around 4,000 People in South Wing of Kentucky Fair & Expo Center. It was a sea of people from many places in the USA. There were people from coast to coast.
Why did all those folks come to Louisville, Kentucky just for a youth conference? To hear Holiness preaching, to fellowship holiness young people and to ready our generation to carry on through tough times.
Many say young people don't want Holiness. If you believe that opinion then you need to attend PFYC! You will see young people responding by thousands to holiness preaching.
Now it is late Saturday night and we are in Thomasville, Georgia. Revival begins in the morning with Homecoming. We are anticipating a great week here at New Hope Holiness Church. We already had good fellowship with Pastor Tony Walker and Family tonight!
Dad thanks again for a wonderful weekend. I pray God blesses you with extra strength because you drove the extra miles for me to be at Pentecostal Fire Youth Conference 2010! I love you!!!!!!!

When Your Box Falls Apart

Our home on wheels has two doors. The front door has storage compartments. You can get in that way but it would be quite a climb. There is no inside handle on the front door. The entrance door is about midway back. It may help to know this. 

We came back to the BoggsMobile after lunch a couple of weeks ago and the door wouldn't open. The bolt lock was unlocked and the latch pulled but the door would not open. I lifted Kelly Jo up into the front door and she tried the latch from inside and it wouldn't open. Something was broke inside the door and you can't take it apart from inside the bus.

If the latch had broken while we were all inside we would have been stuck! Kelly Jo would have been going out the window. I was able to take the latch apart from the outside and get the door open. I did not have time to take the door completely apart and I knew I could not buy that latch at WalMart or Lowe's anyway. I decided it was better to wait until I went to Nashville.

We arrived at Prevost in Nashville this afternoon and I took off the inside of the door. The latch was busted and Prevost had one in stock so I closed my eyes and bought it. I am so mechanically UNinclined it is not funny but I had it tore apart, so my options were few. I waded in to see if it could be done.



While I was working I needed a tool that I thought was inside the bus. I was looking for the tool and picked up a cardboard box we keep in a drawer that has a little bit of everything. The box fell apart in my hands and all the contents went to the floor. Wire nuts, staples, tape, screws, washers, screwdrivers, pliers, tape measure, hammer, rope, flashlights wire ties and on and on and on. 

You get the idea? All of it went to the floor. All over the floor! It was a mess! I found what I needed and began to install the new latch. 


To complete the job I had to put on a very small nut on a hard to reach place and I had no tool to tighten it. I could not get it on. Just as I was about to give up, I remembered something I saw in the junk I had dropped all over the floor.

It was a very small crescent wrench a good brother gave me years ago as part of an object lesson. I forgot the object lesson long ago and had no idea where the wrench was until the box fell apart in my hands and the contents spilled all over the floor.

You can see how small it is when compared to a small set of finger nail clippers.


The small little wrench was the perfect tool for the task at hand. I could not have finished the job the little wrench. And that means I could not have finished the job without the box falling apart and everything scattering all over the floor. 

So, the next time you feel like crying or quitting when things fall apart, stop. Look closely at the pieces scattered about. You may find that the very thing you need is waiting there for you among the scrambled contents of that broken box!

Broken boxes, jumbled contents and inconvenient messes may be the very thing you need to solve your pressing problem.

By the way, I did get the door fixed!

Resurrection Sunday!

We are near Jacksonville, Alabama with Pastor Roger Boyd and the
folks at Charlie Penny Rd. Holiness Church. We started Saturday night
and we will be here through Tuesday night.

Sunday services have been great. We are praising God for a risen
Saviour! He certainly visited us in a very special way today. Hope you
all had a great day.

God bless,
Davy
