Jabez

Hello again all!
Before we get started I would like to praise God for the blessing he bestowed on the people of Chile, for safely delivering the miners from their entrapment.
Now,
I was putting away some clothes and I saw a book in my closet. The Prayer of Jabez by Bruce Wilkinson. I got this book right around the time I graduated. Seeing it made me think a little.
  1.  I need to read this book.
  2. Who got me where I am?
I'm gonna crack into it after I post this.  But the second  needs to be looked into.  Who do we owe? Who helped us get to where we are?
Four people come to mind.
My best friend Ronny.  He was a stepping stone.  He invited me to church.
Our ride Danny.  He picked me up every Sunday morning, took us for breakfast, drove us to church, bought us lunch, took us back to church.  He picked us up every Wednesday afternoon and bought us dinner and took us to church.  He sacrificed so much for us.
Youth Pastor, Tim.  Anytime I have had a question, he has had an answer.  Always treated me with respect and kindness.
Pastor, Jack.  He accepted me. And considering how I dressed and who I was at the time thats a big deal.  He was always encouraging and helpful.

So, thanks all.  There are several people who have helped me.  These are the four people that are most prominent. 
I think its good every now and then to reflect on who God has placed in our life.
