He seems to always come through in the 11th hour. I remember the first time I heard you teach. It was to a small class and you spoke on the Beautiful Gate. That lesson has stuck with me for the past year. I looked forward to the days I could be in Mosaic to hear you. There is a definite loss and void with this change. However, there is hope and anticipation and even excitement to see where God is leading you. Cornerstone may very well have been a mere stepping stone. Carol James,

I'll try and stay away from cliches and say this from my heart: I can't imagine how hard it is to follow His lead for your lives and ministry, move thousands of miles away, and then have this happen. My prayer for you and your family today, and each day going forward, is that your faithfulness to Him is greatly rewarded. Even though my interaction with you was brief, thank you for your time and sacrifice. In His Love, Scott James,

Still, looks like a labor of love, in every sense of the phrase. Keep it up! To paraphrase Bobby Jones commenting on Jack Nicklaus in the 1960s: you are playing a game with which I am not familiar!

Reading your blog post about the early mornings & restlessness sounds all too familiar to me. I was laid off from my job a couple of months ago due to weak revenues at my company. For the next month or so, my mornings began with a knot in my stomach as my mind raced to figure out what was next - how to support my family - where will I find work. Day by day, week after week God continues to remind me that my future, my career, my family are all in His very capable hands. Every morning, God has lead me through a passage or brought a worship song to mind that has taken me be back to one single truth that I am holding firm to. God is faithful. My prayer for you and your family is that you would be amazed by God's faithfulness as you begin to write this next chapter in your life & in your ministry.

Yet something did not sit right with me. I came home and after wrestling with what was bothering me I realized that we aren't alone, we never are. Whether we agknowledge it or not, God is always by our side, and I know that, I just am now starting to actually feel that! I know life will be hard sometimes, but I know He is always there to lift me up and be my peace, comfort, joy and best friend. I know He will never let me down!
