The Countdown

Only one more week of work! I start full time deputation on January 1. I am very nervous but I know the Lord will provide for my needs. Sometime it is hard to just step out on faith but it is the only way to live as a Christian. I am reminded about the widow that took care of Elijah. She gave her all to God and God took care for her. That is what I and every Christian needs to do. I need to give my all to God. While on deputation I will need to fuly trust God to meet my needs. I look forward to my time on deputation but I also hope that the people of God will pray that all goes well.

God has allowed me to be in several churches





God has allowed me to be in several churches before I start full time in January. I was able to be at Global Vision Baptist in Mt Juliet TN and then Calvary Baptist in Eatonton GA. I appreciate the people of God being willing to pray for the ministry God has given me. The Pastors and their people have been an encouragement to me. The Lord provided the meetings for me. It is a blessing to see God take care of me and my needs. When a need comes up I get excited now to see how God is going to supply. My sister and brother-in-law surprised the whole family when they told us they were pregnant. I am really excited about being an uncle! My parents are more excited about being grandparents. I went to the Vision Conference of my church last night. The church has a plan to reach the city for Christ. The churches motto this year is Mission: Earth 2010, One + One = Two. Each member of Lighthouse is supposed to reach and disciple one in 2010 which would double the church next year. It is a privilege to be a member of a church that has a Vision to reach their city and the world! Also, My first prayer letter goes out Friday, if you could like to receive one please e-mail me your address and/or e-mail address I can send it to either.

Christmas Time!

I have been busy the past couple of weeks. Christmas time is here. I feel that sometimes we get so busy this time of year we forget what Christmas is all about. I enjoy the parties, music, and giving gifts but we need just to take time to thank God for His gift (Jesus). I wish I could have seen it, the time when almighty God can to be born to die for man. All I can say is to GOD be the glory. My pastor has been teaching on worship and knowing who God is. Christmas time is a great time to praise God...God is Wonderful, Prince Of Peace, Emmanuel, Christ, Messiah, Everlasting One, Father, The Beginning and the End, Creator, All Knowing, The God of my Salvation, Shepherd, and the list can go on and on. God is great and deserves our praise and thanksgiving this time of year!
