How Can I Say Thanks?

by | Dec 21, 2024 | 0 comments

Some of you may remember Andrae Crouch’s song from the early 1970’s entitled “To God Be the Glory”. In that song these words say so much… “How can I say thanks for the things you have done for me; Things so undeserved, yet you gave to prove Your love for me…” That song has always been a favorite of mine because it expresses the kind of gratitude I think we all want to give to God for His undeserved salvation for those who believe and put their faith in Him as Lord. In the end all we can say is “to God be the glory”!

That, in a small way, is my sentiment toward those of you who have so generously and graciously supported the work of this ministry year after year. All I can say is “thanks”, and even then the question remains, “how can I say thanks” enough to express my gratitude? I can’t, but I want you to know your support means so much more than I can possibly express to you.

Please accept my inadequate attempt to say “thanks”. In the end, all that can truly be said is “to God be the glory for the things He has done” through YOU!

May this Christmas season bring you great joy as you give thanks for the amazing things He has done for us through His Son, our Lord Jesus Christ!

REPRISTINATORS WANTED!

The word “repristinate” is not a commonly used word. In simplest terms, it means to “restore to an original state or condition”--like repairing and repainting an old white picket fence. A ‘repristinator’ (my word) is one who engages in the task of restoring that...
