In 2007, when I was going through some difficult times of my own, Ron and Sue Sauer, my pastor and his wife, encouraged me to encourage others. They were wise to know that if I were to reach out to others, my problems would be put into better perspective. 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 I have learned through all my challenges, no matter how bad things have gotten, the Lord will never leave us. I have experienced this first-hand many times. Deuteronomy 31:6 Having Jesus as my Lord and Savior has given me a new life. So as it says in 1 Thessalonians 5:11 Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing. I pray you have experienced God's love and faithfulness in your life too, and if so, I encourage you to encourage others, as I have made it a point to do via this web site and the life I live for Christ. ~ Bill Greguska
