For God is working in you, giving you the desire and he power to do what pleases Him
Philippians 2:3
Over the past few months we have seen the hand of God working through our ministry. When things seem impossible and we get discouraged that we are not making a true impact, God shows up!
Think of your favorite biblical character or person. Before they were well-know, they were an unknown. The Lord tends to take nobodies and make them into somebody. He typically uses those who were broken and humble, rather that those who are proud and arrogant.
We may think we are the biggest thing that every hit the Christian scene, but if we are to be truly effective, we need to allow God to direct-traffic. Only through Him can our ministry continue to meet the needs of those on the road.
The Bible is full of stories about God using
Ordinary people in Extraordinary ways

CLMinstries has been partnering with CrossRoads Church of Tyler Texas for the past two-three years for a specific purpose -- share Christ by giving out lunches to the truck-drivers who stop at Love's Truck Stop, Van Texas during a holiday period. Below is our most recent out-reach on 16-Feb-2019.
Collectively, we handed out 75 meals and some 20-25 Bibles in a little more than one-hour. Most accepted by saying "thanks," yet others found this gift of love from Him who offered. Our effectiveness to reach others is only possible if the Holy Spirit first softens their heart. We give God the glory for those hearts soften.
THE FACES OF THOSE WE SERVE - AS THEY SERVE US AS A NATION
Let us never forget and always remember that "God Love Truck Drivers Too"
If you ever feel like you aren't worthy enough, remember that Jesus used a bunch of flawed people to share Hope to a flawed world. In Him, we find renewal and mending. Jesus didn't call the equipped, He equipped the called. And no matter what you've been through in life, remember that the same power that conquered the grave lives with you. Truck drivers, much like all of us need to know they are loved. That is what CDLMinistries is all about.
Come be apart of God's Ministry and see Him show up!
