Wallace’s Missionary Prayer Letter – April – May 2009
Pastors, Church Families, Friends & Family:
The economy continues to affect many in one way or another. How thankful we should be for our Lord’s promise to us in Psalm 37:25, “…yet have not I seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.” Our security is not in the government, but in God who, according to the Bible, owns cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50:10)
Harry Ironside was a man who could preach but he could also pray. One day when their ministry was in financial despair, he prayed about the matter with some other men. Harry prayed, reminding God (who owned the cattle) of His promises, and asked God to sell some of His livestock for their needs.

However, we thank the Lord that he continues to use us as we travel to see souls saved and meet other Christians soldiers of the Son.
The Lord never fails to show Himself faithful in so many ways to our family, and safety is just one the ways. Amen! This is and will be an important area for us.
