Thanks, Anne!

My cousin, Anne, emailed me today and said that she had been reading my blog. It was great to hear from her but she closed with this verse that really encouraged me.
"God is not unjust: He will not forget your work and the love you have shown Him
as you have helped His people and continue to help them." Hebrews 6:10

Sometimes in this church planting business you can feel like your greatest effort makes little impact and goes unnoticed but it is great to know that God sees. My desire is to be the church in Holly Springs. When people in this community think of church, I want them to think of us. I was a little amazed that out of all the churches in this area, we were the only one at the Autumn Fest. We met a lot of people and planted seed but only God knows what will come of it. I want to have a presence wherever a crowd gathers. I want them to see us everywhere. I want them to know that there is a church that will come to them and not just wanting them to come to us. It takes time and a lot of seed to grow a church. I am glad that God sees and will not forget the love we have shown.
