I cannot begin to explain how thankful I am. Words, unfortunately, can in no way express the magnitude of joy that I feel. Our family decided to cook a Thanksgiving dinner for the English group at Golgotha. I felt impressed to prepare a traditional American meal for our friends. Of course, the most important part of the day was the fellowship with one another.
There was a time to share testimonies of how God has worked in the lives of the members. As they wait in long lines to purchase fresh milk, one couple shared how they have been reading the Bible together daily and how blessed they have been. They hope others will see their happiness and desire to read the Bible with them. Who knows? Maybe there will be a future Bible study group that starts.
Another young man said that God has blessed him in his job this year. There were many such testimonies. I was very pleased to have a friend’s husband join us. We praise the Lord that he has not been dependent on alcohol for a year. He told me that he is finding his way to God now. Praise the Lord that he is closer today than he was yesterday.
God has shown me this year that we are to be faithful and obey in the task He gives us regardless of the size of the group—large or small. God knows the outcome of my efforts; I do not have to know all the plans from the beginning. I will see fruit if my desires are in harmony with Christ’s. Bless others and you will be blessed. I thank God for this day—November 25, 2010.
In His Love,
Les
