Is Christ Enough?

Hi everyone!

      I'm sorry it's been so long.  There's been a lot going on the past two months, more than I can share in one post, but I wanted to update you on something taking place right now.  Michelle and I were blessed to have been invited to the Global Mission's Conference at FBC O'Fallon (near St. Louis).  We arrived yesterday and will be here through Sunday.  I won't try to relate everything going on, but I must say I've never been a part of a mission's conference like this where the church has invested so much time, energy, and resources to be a blessing to missionaries.  And Michelle and I haven't even made it to the field yet!  Needless to say but it is a humbling experience for us.  Please pray for all of the new relationships we make this weekend.

     I wanted to share one thing God was whispering to me last night during the opening service.  The worship team led this song entitled "Chris is Enough" ( http://youtu.be/V9fTw9MLKAo ). You can hear it by clicking the link.  Sometimes it's good to be reminded of the big picture.  This whole thing is about Christ! He abides in me, and He's enough. I had to pray, "Lord, if we don't make it to France till we're 50, if we never make it, Christ is enough. You never fail us and we won't turn back. Chris is enough." Thanks for praying for us.  I don't know what the Lord has in store, but we're going to follow Him and we know that He's good. I'll have more updates in our next newsletter which I hope to send out soon.
