It is Awesome!

There are only a few weeks until the National Day of Prayer. It would take several pages for me to tell you about all the doors God is opening to unite the body of Christ on May 1 in prayer. It is truly awesome to see. Ministries of all sizes are stepping forward to ask, "how can we help"? We have over 1300 radio stations carrying 70 unique messages to encourage participation. A business man contacted me yesterday and asked for billboard artwork. He is placing a billboard ad in every city across America. Coach Tony Dungy filmed two commercials for us that will be airing on television programs throughout the day. Millions of emails and direct mail pieces are being distributed internationally. The NDP NASCAR #78 will be racing again in April at Talladega. It will be completely covered with the NDP flag logo. Last year, it was the teams best race. Millions watched the car lead the race on several laps. It was very exciting. With all our partners stepping forward to assist our volunteer network in driving awareness for the National Day of Prayer, we are seeing tremendous growth in all areas. Answered prayers and testimonies are coming in faster than we can keep up. You can't imagine the joy we feel every day as the phones are ringing off the hook with passionate people on the other end talking about their prayer events. For those on the front line, it can feel lonely at times, but I am here to tell you that you are not alone. Millions will be praying together on May 1. Think about what that will sound like before the throne room of our Lord. It will be a sweet aroma indeed. Remember, prayers outlast the lips that utter them. They are a blessing to our God and King.

On another note, I thank all of you who have emailed or called me to share your prayers for my wife. She is strong and courageous. Her battle with cancer has only drawn us closer to the Father. We are grateful for every day together. I don't know how many days we will have, but we are going to use them wisely to honor our King. Enjoying a sunset is a lot more important than it used to be. Life gets busy. It is easy to overlook the blessings around us. God is so creative. Non of us know the day or hour when God will call us home, so make every minute count. We only have one life on this earth to do it right. Stay the course. Talk to you soon.
