The following is a note received on 6 April 2017 from an Australian who tuned in to BHBPC Prayer Meeting devotion “From Privation to Peace” (Psalm 13):
Good morning,
I awoke this morning at 3.30am with a burden regarding a situation at work. I could not go back to sleep so I chose to listen to a random sermon on Sermon Audio. I listened to your message from Psalm 13. I just wanted to thank you as I was truly encouraged as I learned again to put my trust in God and not in my own strength.
Thank you and God bless you all.
My name is Neil and I am in Australia.
Blessings from down under!
Peace. (End of letter)
My reply:
Dear Bro Neil,
Indeed, we have a great God. The Lord keep and strengthen you. He makes a way for you. Keep in touch.
May the Word of God be sounded forth to the uttermost parts of the earth! Amen.
