Thank You, Dear Brother

It has been a rich blessing during the past couple of weeks to spend time visiting with a large number of preachers. Many of these wonderful young men are not well known to most people in our brotherhood. They are not speakers for large events and programs. 

Yet, they are doing God’s work in amazing ways. They preach the Word of God in love with passion and conviction. They are helping create changed hearts through their preaching of the Word. They are helping Christians learn how to apply God’s Word to life. 

They minister to their brothers and sisters in numerous Christlike ways. They care deeply for the people to whom they preach. They get to know their people, and they help them grow in their relationship with the Lord. These brothers are also greatly respected and loved by those in their sphere of influence.

Our loving Father has often used people who were not considered great by the world. So, if you sometimes feel neglected or even ignored, please don’t lose heart. You may never know in this lifetime how much you are impacting people for God. But don’t ever forget that God knows, and those whose lives have been changed by the Gospel know the difference you are making.

Dear brother, we encourage you to keep going. Keep preaching. Keep teaching. Keep loving. Keep serving. Keep praying. Keep influencing. Keep letting your light shine for Jesus. Keep on keeping on. 

Our prayer is that God will bless you as well as your family in all you do for Him this week.
