You're My Best Friend

It’s been a while since my last post, sorry. We have been busy getting our house ready to sell. Last night I had a sobering thought come to my mind. We did a huge youth event at our church. Many of our friends were involved in either the planning or the worship band that played. As I prayed with the band before we got underway the reality that this would be some of my last days with these guys began to set in. These guys have become like a band of brothers to me. The two Justins, Jon and Melissa, Will, and others will no longer be people I see week to week.

We are so pumped about starting this new church in Wisconsin and all that God has in store for us. But starting in the next couple of months my longstanding support network of passionate Christ followers is going to go from a mass of guys we have gotten close to over the years to a handful of guys I’m just now getting to know. And the cool new friends we’ve made already in Wisconsin all live in other cities. Our first year could be tough on our encouragement level. I don’t usually ask you guys to do STUFF for me but this is some STUFF I really, really need from you.

What I really need you guys to do for us is shoot me emails or call me up. When God says something to you about us in prayer or a scripture comes to mind, PLEASE send it along to us. We will need the encouragement, I’m sure. I’m really going to miss all of our friends here. But God has great things in store. For those of you who don’t have it our email address that will remain the same is danellandjim@yahoo.com. My cell is (870) 718-5314. Text me, Call me, or email me a word from God any time you feel He is leading you to do so. I’m sure we will need it just when you send it. Thanks for such great friendships guys. We really love you all.
