Miles and Miles Before We Sleep...

PDF Version : Anderson_WEEKLY_150425

Life on the road is adventure-filled, and we thank the Lord for thousands of miles logged safely. Late Thursday night, the alternator of our 1993 Taurus with over 360,000 miles stopped working in Alabama. Verlin made it to the next exit, then had to cut the lights to keep the car running. On 'Googling', he 'happened' to find two auto parts stores were on that street. The nearest was closed, but the second had a part in stock for the infrequent engine size if he could get there. Then the car just 'happened' to die before a parked police officer who drove Verlin the remaining mile to the second store. The manager, who just “happened” to have recently replaced the same on a friend's similar model, volunteered to install it freely with his tools. We prayed and shared Christ's counsel about suffering and healing. Of course, none of this just “happened.” The Lord always provides.

Today we think of our many missionary friends and the staff at Free Will Baptist International Missions who also travel extensively to promote the April 26 World Mission Offering (WMO). May the offering bountifully meet the needs of IM ministries around the world! Although we no longer work or partake together in the same organization, we count them dear co-laborers in the Lord’s harvest and wish all who carry the Gospel of Peace to others the encouragement from blessed supporters.

And speaking of logging miles, we read good news earlier this month. The Cote d’Ivoire airport has finally met the requirements to have direct air flights from the United States to Abidjan. Hopefully this will bring ticket costs down $200 to $400 per ticket, as it did on direct flights in neighboring countries.  And we won’t complain when the flight time drops 4 to 8 hours, either.

Thank you for faithfully praying and giving. Through our combined efforts, may His will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.

Your partners in the gospel,
Verlin and Debbie
