Sowing into the New Year

[Forum Administrator]

To The Deep Waters Family:

As we look forward to entering into 2005, our hearts are filled with hope and a deep sense of gratitude because of all that God has done, is doing, and will do. Thanks to you all, Deep Waters is able to close out 2004 knowing that we have both helped and been helped by one another.

We would like to encourage all of us to make a commitment to sowing those things that we want to reap in this New Year. What better way to start than by helping those who are in the most need? Many of us want financial blessings; so let us give of what we have to those in need. God has promised to meet all of our needs as we meet the needs of others. Many of us want healing in our relationships; so let us help to bring healing to those whose lives have been ravaged and torn and who are left to bear a burden of grief that many of us will never know. Many of us want better homes, better jobs, or better lives in general. Let us help others rebuild their homes, enable them to do their jobs, and help to bring life to what is now a barren wasteland. Please visit http://www.deepwaters.info/tsunami.htm and sow a seed into the lives of some of the poorest among us. "He who is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward him for what he has done." - Proverbs 19:17.

Again, thank you all, and may God bless us to have a year of hope, healing and healthy relationships in 2005! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
