Blessed People Bless People

As we bring 2022 to a close, I also bring my time of ministry at First Baptist Arlington to a close. The year 2023 will bring new opportunities and blessings for each of us. This end-of-the-year season provides a natural time to reflect on our many blessings. It feels fitting for me to share a blessing here as we close this sweet time of ministry. May this blessing cover your family, your home, and your lives. From this blessing – may you also bless others.

  • May your Family live an abundant life – together. Together, may you be blessed with laughter, understanding, respect, and a deep love for each other.
  • May your Children be guided by wisdom, strengthened with confidence, and always find God’s Truth.
  • May your Home be a blessing to others who need to: Feel God’s Love, See God’s Kindness, and Know God’s Truth.
  • And may You, yourselves, live lives that naturally hold space for God, hold space for others, and hold space for quiet peace.

I am so very thankful to God Almighty for each of you and your children. He has allowed our lives to intersect, for which I am very grateful. You and your family have indeed filled my life with blessings. Thank you for allowing me to serve you, to be included in your families, and to walk alongside of you as we have all grown to reflect God’s Glory a little brighter.

“May the Lord bless you
and take good care of you.
May the Lord smile on you
and be gracious to you.
May the Lord look on you with favor
and give you peace.”  (Numbers 6:24-26, NIrV)

Blessed People Bless People!

With much love,
