WelcomeHello everyone,
I just came across this thread and am thrilled to find a large body of believers who share their faith, struggles and God's victories on BYC. I've trusted Jesus in 1988 and can whole heartedly testify that there is NO way I'd be where I am today with Him. I don't have a lavish life but I have exactly what I need and I've gone through some pretty tough times. I served in international missions for 12 years and have been incredibly blessed to see many many people come to Christ in lands were speaking the name of Jesus can lead to death.
Lord, even though this world around us is in chaos right now, You are not only fully aware of it, but you knew it would happen from the beginning of time. You created us so that each of us would be alive in these very days. I ask that you make us productive warriors for You during this turbulence. Strengthen us. Confirm for us that You are very near to our sides. Lead us in the way You want us to go. And thank you Lord; for every blessing, every chirping bird we hear, the food we are sustained with, the love of animals, the shelter you have provided, and most importantly for making such a clear and free pathway for us to once again approach the throne room of grace.
May you all have a blessed day with the Lord. Struggles and all.... He is there with you in joy, struggles and sorrow.
