I CAN!!!!!

Philippians 4:13 (AMP) I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me [I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me; I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency].

Philippians 4:13 (KJ) I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

We were watching a movie and this man was making a speech.  He was talking about his dad and a statement that was common to him.  The statement was “What would you do, if you knew you would not fail? Then do it!!!”  We as sons and daughters of the most high God truly do have that assurance.  We read that in Philippians 4:13 and we see that it is not because of our works but through the completed works of Christ.  If God said, “I can do all things”, then that’s what He meant, ALL THINGS!!!!

I remember my father-in-law, the late Dr. James Zirkle, making this statement:  “One of the biggest regrets old people have, is that they did not take enough chances”.  We can no longer let fear rule us!  We have got to take a stand on His Word and move forward with our God given dreams.

What a sad thing it would be to live your life only to get to the end of it and realize that we have never truly lived.

I pray this prompts you to dream at a level like never before and to live life so large that you become a light to a lost and dying world.

So I leave you with these two words…

LIVE UNPREDICTABLE

Ministry Update

What a wonderful year it has been and the best is yet to come!  We are drawing closer and closer to that 32 year mark for the ministry and look what all the Lord has done!!!!  We have seen over 700,000 new births; many of which were one on one and over 31,000 graduates from the Bible Schools in those 32 years.
In 2010, there were 145,448 people ministered to outside of normal church services and not including Bible school classes.  We saw over 20,000 new births from the groups and other such activities and graduated 1,344 Bible Students at our yearly graduation on our campus in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala.  During the Shoebox outreach in December, we distributed 12,186 shoeboxes to babies and children in the countries of Guatemala, Panama, and Nicaragua which was combined with over 2,700 new births.
This year, we are believing for more, more, more, more and did I mention MORE?!  In March, we held one of two yearly medical mission trips in Guatemala where we treated 3,313 nationals and saw 347 give their lives to Christ.  In the months of June & July, we hosted our summer mission trips where we ministered to over 8,100 adults and children and saw 4,447 give their lives to Christ.
We are now preparing for our October 17-26 Medical Mission trip, and the December 2-10 Operation Shoebox mission trip.  We would love for you to come and be a part of one of these trips.  For more information, call our US Office @ 903-527-4160 or visit us on the web @ www.livingwaterteaching.org.
Be blessed,
