It’s hard to believe but 2010 has come to an end. Most people around the world will celebrate this evening by watching fireworks, either in person or on the television. Since I’m still in Australia I will experience the new year about the time my family in Texas is just beginning their last day of 2010. I plan to be back with them by January 8th.
In this last message of 2010, I want to say thanks for all your support, both through prayers and finances. I recently sent out a letter to those who support us on a monthly basis. I believe that letter is useful to send to everyone so I’ve included the letter below.
************Letter to Supporters********
Greetings in the Name of Jesus!
Thank you so much for your encouragement and support. Once again I’m amazed at how God continues to send people who desire to help us share His message around the world.
I know I don’t do enough with thanking those who continue to support this ministry. I really should do better with this because I’m truly in awe of your faithfulness. Several people have supported God’s Daily Word for four or five years; and some, like Mark and Karen in San Antonio and Eileen in Newberry FL, have faithfully supported this ministry since I officially began just over ten years ago. This is incredible. So thanks! I believe that in a small way we are being used to encourage many people around the world to live a life which is honoring to God.
I receive a great deal of feedback which says we are being effective, but here is one note which recently touched my heart:
***
I just wanted to stop and take a moment to say thank you for everything you do. I am currently serving in the armed forces and am deployed overseas. Often times the mission does not allow me to attend a regular church service, or worship in the traditional manner. But your messages have made a significant, lasting impression and have helped me to stay close to God and hear His word. Thank you so much for everything you do. I hope that God continues to bless you and your family and that you continue your work for many years to come.

Thanks for your support and for allowing me to do what I do – it is truly a great privilege! Please pray that this ministry will remain directed by God and continue to bring Him glory and honor in all we do!
***********End of Letter************
It’s been quite a journey to say the least! Over the last ten years, this ministry has defined my life; and I’m quite excited about how we might be used to glorify God in the years to come. Thanks again on the last day of 2010!!!
Have a Christ Centered Day!
