Long Line of Givers

i've been using "Drawing Near" by john macarthur during my morning devotions this year. today's reading had me meditating on Philippians 1:3 and challenged me to thank God for people who have been a help to me in my Christian walk. well, as i drove to fca this morning i started making a mental list of people who through their giving have enabled me to work in ministry for the past 16 years as well as to travel on 8 short term mission trips (literally all over the world). i praise God for these people and miss those who are no longer here!
