A Time to Remember
"Old Testament stories are not formulas for personal growth, rather they are stories to help us understand the character & nature of God with whom we interact." - D. Miller
While at home, I have had some time to reflect & look back over the past years of my life. It was fun to look through some old photo albums & see who impacted my life, had importance & to see whom I have become in Christ.
And as I have been reading through the Old Testament, I have seen many places where the Israelites were called to remember, or looked back at where they came from to see where they were & where they were going, all because of God. Especially in the Book of Deuteronomy, there are a great deal of "remember how the Lord God" statements were made, which encouraged me as well.
Looking at the past & seeing God then & now has really opened my eyes in seeing who God is & how He has had His hand in my life to prepare me for His next adventure. I am thankful for all that I have encountered & experienced through Christ & appreciate all that you have done for me as well.
As you read through this month's letter, I'd encourage you take time to remember how the Lord God got you to where you are today & thank Him for all He has done.
Love,
Mike
Praise & Prayers
I offer my praise & thanksgiving to the Lord for my time in the states & for all who invest in this ministry. Please join me in prayer for healing hearts, smooth transition & for a specific yearlong prayer for me.
New Role
Some of you have asked great questions about my new role that I thought I'd share a few of them with answers.
Stay Connected
Since I will soon return to Eastern Europe, I'd love to remain in contact with you. As I shared during my visits, not having constant communications from friends & family can be hard & lonely at times. Thankfully, there is a way we can stay in touch over the computer through Skype, for free!
Peter & Katka
I want to thank you for your prayers on the many events that took place last month. I thought I'd share a few things that occurred.
