I read a lovely quotation by one of my old friends, the Reverend Ron Wesson, who said “God has a work for you, ministries may change, but they should not stop.” He went on to say, your life has an eternal purpose. I really appreciated that thought…

At Shalom we have a saying, “One genuine miracle equals a thousand sermons.” It’s all very well to tell people about Jesus, but we must also show people about Jesus.

You and I need to be more attentive to the things that we do, not only for the Lord but in secular life as well. Routine is very important to run a successful operation. We must do everything in an orderly manner.
