Encouragement

No matter who you are getting a piece on encouragement is always great. Often it's the critics that speak up and others stay silent. So today receiving the card below made my day.

It also confirms to me that church leaders need to be honest, open and transparent about their weaknesses as well as their strengths to their congregation. I've probably had more feedback from my message "LoveWorks for the Broken" than any I have preached at MKCC.

I suspect the card was delayed in the post because of all the snow. To be honest I could have done with it last week but hey God arranged it for today and he knows best. :-)

    Great word Billy - amazing how infectious a critical word can be - and you only need one! But how hard it is sometimes to recieved a word of encouragement - you know - "Am I allowed to feel good about myself??"

    Thanks for an amazing word mate! Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year!
