Am I Spending My Time Wisely
Mike,
This is my first time writing you, and I want to encourage you to keep up the good work. I have read much of your stuff and I am in agreement with it all! Reading your papers only encourages me and confirms all that Holy Spirit/ Christ Jesus has taught me! It is always nice to find another of the Body out there. Are you familiar with Elwin Roach and his writings? I highly recommend him and acknowledge him as a brother also.
The members of the Body are so different (ears, hands, eyes, etc.) and yet all parts in agreement with one heart and one mind. I love reading your site. I myself teach one on one with whomever God deems to send to my door and live for such times. I bask in teaching His word and receive much joy on my part as the littlest toe on the body. Keep up and keep on truckin’. You’re in my prayers as well as all the Body. I guess that’s loving myself too!
In Christ Jesus and Christ Jesus in me,

Thank you for your words of encouragement Shari. I have heard of Elwin Roach, but I have never had the time to read his writings.
Mike,
I have also encouraged Elwin to read your writings and his answer was, he is busy also. Isn’t that amazing? Even the smallest voice in the body is for the edification of the WHOLE church. I know I wouldn’t want to miss out of what Christ might be saying through even the smallest member. How ’bout you? And your welcome on the words of encouragement.
Christ in me,

Hi S____,
I am certain that neither Elwin nor I want to miss out on any of the words of Christ. We all, however, are constrained by time. I will say that any time you see me saying something contrary to God’s Word, I will take the time to deal with your concern. I have hundreds of people who are asking me questions every week. I simply cannot do any more than that of which I am capable. I hope you understand that we are all doing what we feel God would have us to do.
Again, if you feel I have obviously missed out on any truth you or Elwin or anyone else has been given to see, I want to know.
Mike
