What a great and merciful God we serve

As I look back over 2004, I stand in awe and with thanksgiving, that He has been so gracious to my family and me. The Lord has truly blessed us beyond measure.

Sure, we have had trials and hardships, but nevertheless, He has led us and provided for us in so many ways.

I guess what amazes me more than anything, is the fact that God is so longsuffering. In spite of my selfishness, my stubborn attitude, the Lord continues to bless and continues to encourage and enlighten me.

We have had lot on our plate in the last year; the purchase of WQBC, the production and presentation of the daily morning broadcast, the Sunday broadcast, church, family and more. It all seems too much to bear at times, and sometimes it seems easier just to quit.

But, in spite of it all, in the quite, stillness, God speaks and gives strength. Oh how I praise Him for allowing me to be a small part of what He wants to do on this earth.

I am excited about what He has in store for 2005 and I think that this year is a pivotal year for not only myself, but for the body of Christ as a whole.

May we all be found faithful, and in whatever we do or say, may God be glorified.
