A word from Doc

As I reflected at the end of 2012 and the beginning of 2013, God showed me three small words: "How much more." Take a few moments and look these words in the following verses:

Hebrews 9:14
"How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God!"

Luke 12:25-28
“Has anyone by fussing before the mirror ever gotten taller by so much as an inch? If fussing can’t even do that, why fuss at all? Walk into the fields and look at the wildflowers. They don’t fuss with their appearance—but have you ever seen color and design quite like it? The ten best-dressed men and women in the country look shabby alongside them. If God gives such attention to the wildflowers, most of them never even seen, don’t you think he’ll attend to you, take pride in you, do his best for you?"

As I look back on 2012 and at the services Victory has provided, I am overwhelmed by "how much more" God has blessed Victory in 2012. But I also look forward in 2013 to "how much more" we can "serve the living God" (Hebrews 9:14).

Thanks be to God! Thanks and blessings to all of our supporters, partners and volunteers. As I heard a pastor challenge his congregation, "Intentionally engage in every conceivable good work." So our challenge is to engage that we may serve God's people. Simply put, we serve a 'how much more God!'

God Bless,
