Champions

From time to time we feel like we're working with champions. We have some of the best officers in the world in the Australian Southern Territory and we are so grateful to God for them. Carolyn and I met with a few of these officers today for a casual meeting. My heart rejoices for their faithfulness, hopefulness and earnestness. Hallelujah!

Don't worry about who they are. Give thought to being all you can be for God. That's they key to their success. That's what shines through them like a brilliant beam from heaven. There are, in fact many like these today who serve out of love and in so doing, serve like champions. Thank you.

1 Peter 5:4 (AMP)
4 And [then] when the Chief Shepherd is revealed, you will win the conqueror’s crown of glory.

There are certainly some wonderful people who are work hard, but most of all are so encouraging and have a beautiful spirit.

You and Carolyn are two of those people, so thank you

Thanks for meeting up with me today...oops, I'm not an officer yet...actually you didn't meet up with me today at all. Maybe one day!!

SP - So when do you want to meet?

Hi Commissioner!!

Just trying to crack a joke! (Doesn't ususally go down too well though!) Just trying to say/hint that I was a part of the next generation of great leaders of God's Army!

I pray all is going well, and God is still blessing your work abundantly!
