So pleased you are taking time out to reconnect with God which is the most important thing and also taking time to rest and take care of yourself health wise. Know that I will be praying for you and will be here whenever you feel you are ready to return. No rush.

Bless you Donny🙏. I'm so happy to hear that you are taking some time for yourself. When we get overwhelmed, it's best to take time out so as not to burn out. Take all the time you need, as your health and well being is the most important thing. Thank you for this message. I pray that God can continue to help and guide you. I pray that this sabbatical gives you some peace and comfort, and time to relax and destress.

Take care of yourself🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I will be praying for you Donnie Mac. All of us need to take a pause at times to access the landscape of our lives. Please talk and walk with God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit for guidance and direction. Again, my prayers go with you.

I’m sad Donny. I’m a new subscriber and I’m working hard to catch up on all the prayer walks a day I will be good. It’s definitely in the shalom government of the One True and Living God to take breaks and rests for the sake of the sharing of the Good News. I suppose every week Jesus lived the Sabbath and tho he didn’t allow it to keep him from bringing the Kingdom of Heaven to earth, he observed the Torah and Shabbat principle. Pastor Robert Morris has a book out called take the day off. Our entire family is in the Kingdom of God ministry and we’re JUST NOW beginning to take sabbath’s. What a huge difference it makes! I encourage you to read or listen to the audio and allow it to redirect your energy to work smarter not harder. In peace! Susan Pate

Take care of yourself, Donny! I'm so glad you shared this, and also that you are taking a break. Please forgive me for thinking you were ghosting me, no need to respond to this silly, self-centered notion now that I know it's not true and that you're okay. I pray for you daily, and will continue to do so. I pray for your health (physical and mental), for you to be able to let go of everything that's not crucial for your survival while you rest and nurture your relationship with God and Jesus, and with yourself. I pray that you will be surrounded by the form of non- judgemental Love you've shared with others, and that God will hold you in His heart as you pray for guidance as to what you are being called to do next. As you have so often reminded me, Donny,you are loved by God. You are also loved by the community you've helped create through Prayer Walks. You are loved by those of us who have never known as kind ,caring, and human a man in their lives. Thank you seems like such a small thing to say, so I I'll just wish you God's many blessings 🙌, as you continue on your journey. ❤️🙏 Pam 💞🦋

Praying Holy Spirit continually breathes fresh fire upon Donny and everyone here!

Power and Presence so much more important than structure and schedules

Donny, Just to add my two cents worth. It is so important to look after yourself in all aspects of your life. My life has been heavy lately so I feel such empathy for you. I love your uplifting walks and guidance even though I don't always comment. Reconnect with the things that give you peace and enlightenment. Blessings to you on your journey however long it takes. We will be here waiting for your return.

I agree with Theresa, there is nothing more important than your own relationship with God. You hamve been encouraging to all of us, now it's time for you to be encouraged. I hope you will be back, but if not, God bless you and your ministry. I wanted to give to your ministry, but I don't understand how to use the give, send, go plan. Is there a phone number that I can call? I should be moving to my other daughter's house within 3 weeks. God bless you, Donny!

Donny, blessings to you. I want you to know I’m praying for you. When you get overwhelmed it’s a good thing to step away get a good look at what all needs to be done or put aside for just a little while. Looking to God and asking him to help is a good place to start. Thank you Donny for always thinking of us. Please take care and we will be waiting for your return rest easy knowing God is right beside you. He’ll guide as he always has.

Also, may I encourage you to take this time of sabbatical to study this principle. I believe this is important to your future ministry. Also never let the URGENT overtake the IMPORTANT. Urgent things oppress you. Even urgencies in ministry exist. Yet important things don’t drain your energy. May you come forth from this time with a greater understanding of your calling and the wise way to fulfill it. One can never pour from an empty vessel. And though our spirit man is renewed daily, for some reason, God saw the need to laugh, rest & celebrate on the 7th day. “No work, just fun, good food, JESUS LOVES US” I bid you GODSPEED & so look forward to a refreshed, re-newed and recharged Donny Mac!
