Thank You Beverly


“For I am confident of this very thing, the He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus. For it is only right for me to feel this way about you all, because I have you in my heart, since both in my imprisonment in the defence and confirmation of the Gospel, you are all partakers of grace with me. For God is my witness, ho I long for you all with the affection of Christ Jesus. And this I pray, that your live may abound still more and more in real knowledge and all discernment, so that you may approve the things that are excellent, in order to be sincere and blameless until the day of Christ; having been filled with the fruit of righteousness which comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.” Philippians 1:6-11

Do you mark in your Bible? I started to write little notes and dates in mine when I was only nine years old. The verses from Philippians were sent as encouragement to me 12 April 2003 by a lovely woman who still sends me a special writing notebook from the States that I cannot get in Australia. Her name is Beverly and she has subscribed to the WeakDay Devotion since the very beginning. Pray with me in thanksgiving for the faithfulness of Beverly.

Know His Word. Take care. Your servant & friend in Christ, Darlene

PS: Ongoing prayer requests: For the New Year in God’s hands. My friend, Hispa, who need to make a wise decision. Those returning to work this week; healing of Barb and Gary, who lost their jobs; wisdom for doctors caring for: Doris, David, Adrian, Randy and Michael. For some new work projects for me. Praise: Lyle’s brother (healing well) and for his girlfriend (who has stayed with him throughout the entire ordeal).
