The picture to the right is my 5 year olds favorite picture. It is on my computer screen saver and when she walks in my office she points at the yellow fellow and says, "That's me", laughs, and leaves. For 5 years old she seems to get it. A child like faith that says everything is going to be O.K. Now we have a Heavenly Father that loves us and is in control of everything so we too can turn our frowns upside down. He is making all things new, providing our needs, preparing us a home in Heaven, and the list goes on and on. In serving the Lord we will face more challenges than others. We have a real enemy that is constantly trying to discourage us to loose our "smile" with his goal to have us quit. It made me think if the enemy is working so hard in my life, then I must be taking his territory. Each time we reach more for Christ we meet more obstacles. The last couple of months with our automation efforts we have been meeting more opposition. I have learned when discouragement comes to be encouraged because we are gaining more territory for the Glory of God. It actually makes me more focused and motivated to press on while letting the Lord fight my battles. I know you are facing challenges but don't be discouraged, be encouraged, Your service is making a difference in the Kingdom of our Lord.

"Thank You," for the total team effort that produced another top volume month. We are still on course for our goal of 4 million web hits this year. A good report of Souls Saved, Bibles Distributed, Devotions Emailed, Web Hits, Bibles Downloaded, Audio Bibles Accessed, and Online Bible Accessed. Thanks again, for everyone who Prayed, Supplied Funds, Made Visits, Answered Emails, Placed Phone Calls, Provided Bibles, Delivered Bibles, and Shared the Gospel. Your labor is not in vain as I receive mail every day of souls being saved and lives being changed. Let us be encouraged to press to the mark of continuing in the Lord, to do His Will, and His Work in these last days.

Working through automating our Bible Request Search and Placement. This involves building an automated grid and making a data base of old and new partners totaling sixty thousand. A new website to house the new automated software. We have started on the software grid and Automated Bible Request form. This has taken me off Bible Requests and my family is helping with this huge task. I need to lay out the new system, code the new system, and contact the Churches that will actually help with the task. I will need help with the glitches in programing so please pray for us. The enemy seems to attack when we attempt to make improvements. This process will take prayer, funding, and patience.
