To all who have made this year as productive as it could be in the Lord, I am so grateful.  Without your help I would not have been capable of spending the minutes I have been graced to use spreading the Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ the King.  I am humbled by your assistance, buoyed by your support and my reach has been significantly extended by your prayers and encouragement.  The words are insufficient though they are the only mechanism beside action to demonstrate my love and appreciation for all of you.  I pray that my actions following these words express my love for you in a greater manner than my speech.

Forgive me for my shortcomings.  We both see them as if they are big red buttons on my forehead.  I appreciate you never mentioning them, or seldom mentioning in the case of those who have kept me honest and aware.  These are the things we do for each other and for those things you have done for me I am truly grateful.  Thank you for loving me, overlooking my foibles and treating with a fair hand.  That is the example of unconditional love that the Lord told us to share.  I thank you for being obedient in your loving me, I know it has not always been easy, so I offer my special gratitude.

What is next for this body we’ve become?  What horizons shall we ponder, what valleys will we harvest and which mountains shall we traverse in our conversations with God?  How many souls will come to Christ this coming year because we are firmly set in that sweet spot of God’s incredible Will for our lives?  How great the well of love within our own hearts for surrendering to that call and being provided a store of that overwhelming Spirit?  What shall our year end review look like in three hundred and sixty five more days?  Do we have that many days left?  I don’t know but what I do know is that I will be truly blessed in the greatest possible fashion to spend each and every one with you.  May the Lord richly bless you in Spirit, Love, Provision, Passion and Safety throughout 2019.  With all my love in the Great Name of Jesus I pray.  Happy New Year.
