The doctors have advised President Eisenhower to take a two-week vacation as soon as possible. Even Jesus and His disciples had to stop and take a rest. He said "Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest awhile: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat. And they departed into a desert place by ship privately" (Mark 6: 31-32). I have come to the place where I have had to do the same, except that I cannot spare time for any vacation for pleasure — but instead a two week's period of fasting and prayer for the deliverance from the present crisis in God's work — getting clear away from the stress and strain and pressure of constant interruptions and scores of problems forcing themselves on me every day. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
