Prayer Support - June 10, 2008

Good Tuesday morning! I must travel to Mitchell, SD today, and then travel more tomorrow. I hope to have Internet available at the motels and do plan on writing each day. A road trip! It has been sometime since I have traveled for the company. Now to work on my tendency to pack the entire house.

Each day we face a new challenge in Christ. The challenge may be as simple as getting out of bed in the morning; not everyone can do that easily. Each of us may face the end of this life on any given day. Today, reading in Acts, I came upon the story of Saul. One of the first descriptions of Saul states that he was eager to kill followers of Christ. Eager to kill? Wow, and this man became one of the foremost apostles to us, the Gentiles. Yes, we know from some of our earliest lessons in Sunday School about the conversion of Saul to Paul, and from a zealous persecutor of the early church to one of the great Christian writers and speakers of that time. Many are still called to follow a similar path of speaking, writing letters, and traveling to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ. Your path or my path may be somewhat different, but we can all support those who lead many to Christ through their ministries both large and small. What is the most powerful support? Prayer, pure and simple, and something all of us can do.

God bless and keep each of you on this fine day,

Bucky
