My Life is Better for Knowing Him/Her!

Okay, so I wasn't back like I said I was. I try but something always seems to take the time needed for this. I will try to do better. (That is for the one person who reads this blog).

Update on the Cross Lanes Church. We are in an exciting place right now. It is easy to see God working through the whole church. While we are not without difficulties, we are pressing on and seeing God's hand.

Our outreach efforts are paying off and we are seeing new people visit. Our task now is to figure out how to keep them coming back. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I have never been more excited about the future of a church than I am right now. And the best part is that we know God is working. Sometimes in spite of us. Pray for God's will to be done.

Now to the title of this blog -- My Life is Better for Knowing Him/Her! What is it that would cause a person to say this about someone? I think there are many reasons for this to be said and I can honestly name several people who would fit that for me. Dean Miller -- taught me that it is ok to agree to disagree and still love and share together. Papaw Fuller -- taught me that you need to have strong convictions about what you believe, but still humble enough to change if needed. Phil Judd, my father-in-law -- taught me the beauty of tolerance and patience. Kerry Ross, my wife -- taught me that love is definitely blind because she still loves me to this day. And says more than she ever has.

I could go on and on. Take some time to reflect in your life those who have made our life better for knowing them. And then make an effort to improve someone elses life.
