2005-6 Promise Point Baptist Church

Feeling God’s clear leadership, seventeen of us had left Crossroads Baptist Church in Buffalo, MO, to begin a new ministry, and Promise Point Baptist Church was birthed.

Excitement grew as we canvassed the area sharing the Good News of Jesus while working diligently to prepare a vacant church building for Sunday services. God began blessing immediately as one of the young men we visited stood at his front door and asked Jesus into his heart.

The photo stirred happy memories for sure. I treasure each one and long to renew acquaintances and share stories. However, within the photo is another life truth that cannot be overlooked. Only five of the nine in this photo are still living. My time for reminiscing with the other four has passed. (Mr. Bill Ware’s homegoing celebration was today. In his honor I post this.)

Precious friend, this has been a wake-up call for me. I don’t know when I will draw my last breath, nor do you. The time to talk is now.

#1 Do I know, really know, those I meet each day have asked Jesus into their heart?

#2 Do I have my family relationships in order? Are there fences to mend? Stories that need to be told?

#3 Are there people I need to make a point to go see now, and not put off until a “better” day?

The list of questions is endless. I would ask you to pray… seriously pray. Ask God who you might need to talk with today.

As always, I’m praying for you and looking forward to hearing from you.

Hugs, Susie
