Encouragement.  We all need it but few receive it.   One of the most repeated words of advice I receive from those familiar with church planting is “It’s the hardest thing you will ever do”.   Over the past year I have found that to be true in every respect.  However, I am overjoyed to say that the last several months have been the most encouraging months of my life.  Church planting does present itself with it’s fair share of difficulties, but those hard times are far surpassed by the amount of encouragement I receive from the men and women of Radiant Life.  I cannot describe how grateful I am for what God has done over the past year at Radiant Life.  I know that I am the pastor of those who attend RADLIFE, but I am certain that I get the better end of the deal.  While there is only one of me to lead those who consider RADLIFE their home I have an entire congregation of men, women, youth, and children who bring me great joy and encouragement everytime I see them.  So I would like to thank all of those who God has placed in my life over the past year.

Hebrews 10:23-25 Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds.  Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another – and all the more as you see the day approaching.

Thank you Father for… I could never list all the things that I am thankful for.  So, better than thanking you for what you have done for me,  I PRAISE you simply because you are G_d.
