Change is not always bad - sometimes it is actually necessary for growth With yet another change in the seasons, we have the opportunity to think about the changes that come with life. The crispness in the air of fall gives us reason to praise the One who is in control of all things. Some changes are welcomed and pleasant while others are more difficult. Yet our Heavenly Father is all about change as He uses daily opportunities to help change us and shape us into the image of His dear Son. May we never become resistant to what He desires for us to become.
A change that we are sadden over is in our plans to go to Mexico in October. Obviously, this was not the Lord's timing as the details never came together. We still plan to go on Jan. 13-19 and ask that you would pray about going and being a part. As He has for us, we know that God will use this trip (and others like it) to change the way that you live. He will help you to realize how blessed we are to live in America and how much He wants to use us to help bring change through the good news of Jesus and sometimes through work projects done for the less fortunate. One thing that has not changed for which we are extremely grateful is in your faithful, loving support of us and the Complete in Christ Ministries. Thank you so much for your continued prayers and kind words of encouragement. Thank you so much to the many of you who give financially to this ministry as well. Please pray for wisdom and sensitivity to God as He seems to be opening an new avenue of ministry for us through marriage conferences. As you well know, Satan is working hard to destroy marriages and families. We will be privileged over the next few months to use the Word in several churches to hopefully help combat him. |
