Weekly Devotional

By Max Lucado
Dependable people are like diamonds. They are precious because they are so rare. Experience and know-how are great assets, but they are not much good without trustworthiness. Talent is wonderful, but by itself its not enough. Far better to be a faithful christian. Are you? Like Timothy and Epaphroditus , are you a role model for others? Determine to be a person others can rely on. Keep your word. Show up. Be consistent. Live for others. Take risks . Be a "go to" guy or gal. Make it your goal, by God's grace, to exemplify a life of spiritual steadiness.

MINISTRY IN INDIA

We have arrived in Rajahmundry, India on Sunday and it is Tuesday afternoon. We have preached in three services already, have another worship service tonight. Bo Baker and I are preaching in each service and Cheryl, Alyssa and Kennis are giving short words and testimonies.

We may have two women evangelists before we get home!

Tomorrow we will have a Pastors Conference with approximately 120 Pastors coming from the
area. God is blessing and we are blessed beyond measure that HE is allowing us to be apart of HIS Ministries in India.

The mother and grandmother wanted me to bring this precious baby back to the USA. The baby preceded to relive himself on me after I had prayed for he and his family. I am now ready for anything!

As you can see from the pictures, the Lord is using all 5 of us to minister to the people. We have shown any of the pictures of the children. But they and the adults are so loving and caring.

They even love an old grumpy fat man like me. We would love to bring some children back, any takers?

The Gospel meetings start tomorrow night and Williams says we will have about 5,000 people each night coming from different regions. If we had some real preachers preaching, there is no telling what God could do! But it appears he will have to settle on Bo and I!

Please keep praying for us and also pray about coming with us next trip.


We thank you all for your love and support.
We are now able to check email and update the blog as you can tell.
We are limited in the number of pictures we can upload at one time.
God Bless and we love you
Steve, Chery, Bo, Alyssa and Kennis

When I opened this blog, I prayed for you and Cheryl. Isn't it good to be chosen of God for a certain task and know that you are blessed when you are obedient.
