We love what we are doing here and God has blessed us immeasurably while we have been doing it. We trust you can say that too. However life also comes with a hiccup or two!
Here is the hiccup. Discipleship is a give and take proposition. Sometimes its “we give our all to them and they take it all for granted anyway.” Thankfully it’s mostly not like that.
We love what we are doing and know that you know that it’s not all peaches and cream. Recently a situation has come up in our church involving some of our disciples that has required a lot of extra counseling and attention. Thank God that it is mostly all dealt with now but pray that those involved will now become stronger and wiser in the Lord because of it and that the church will become better as a result of the personal growth. Pray for one holdout too!
Satan is still a roaring lion looking for weak Christians to devour. "Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil prowls about like a roaring lion seeking someone to devour. But resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your brethren who are in the world. And after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen and establish you. To Him be dominion forever and ever. Amen 1Peter 5.8-11
