Here's an encouraging email from a fan who celebrated five years of recovery from addiction earlier this year:I plan to pray for your situation every Wednesday at 6 p.m. for five weeks.
I think, "how can this be so hard for them"? "How can a group dedicated to Jesus with so much talent, not just have it easy after 21 years"? I truly believe you aren't in it for the fame and fortune; I believe you want to win souls for Christ.
I know it is tough, writing the letter you wrote is tough, it's a "throw the pride under the bus and hope the bus doesn't get another flat tire from it" kind of letter.
God will provide, and, seeing how you are currently still alive and most likely ate something today and for the last 21 years, He has provided for you to do his work. Go until something stops you. Be encouraged! Measure success with the correct yard stick.
You guys were such an important part of my recovery, you were there for me. Your music not only gave me hope, it gave my mind a place to rest. I found comfort in God's word thru your music when comfort was hard to find.
One great thing about what you do is 100 years from now, your work will still be teaching, encouraging, and wining souls for Christ! Now that is a legacy.
God knows the answer, ask ask ask, Remember, even the unjust ruler judge guy gave in, how much more does God love you than that guy did the widow? Bunches, bunches, bunches!
