January 2016

One thing that intensifies each day is that I miss my sweet wife. She was such a loving, integral and vital part of my life for fifty six years. There is not any thing I do that her presence and input are not missed. Over time I will learn and adjust to do by myself all the things we did as a team. But God!

Php 4:13 Christ is the one who gives me the strength I need to do whatever I must do.

This month has been a multifaceted time…

I was blessed and privileged to be able to help churches on both sides of the border. Distributing Bibles in some, ministering in others, helping out a church in Acuña with a feeding program for neighborhood children.

On the 25th twenty five cases of bibles were delivered here to me. PRAISE THE LORD!!!

The two day a week jail ministry continues to be fruitful in some men …and heartbreaking in others. The Bible speaks of our lives in the flesh as a vapor. While the seventy years or whatever our time is before we pass, it is not even the blink of an eye in eternity. There is not anything we can acquire in this life that can even begin to compare to life-without-end in God’s Presence. One can only pray the seed sown will be watered and one day burst forth in resurrection life.

1Co 3:6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase

On a personal note, except for some kind of virus that bothered me for a couple of days and a visit to the dentist, I have and do walk in God’s health.

A thousand thanks to all of you who partner with me in the ministry. Without God’s enabling graces and your effectual prayer and help nothing could be done. Thank you again for being a blessing to me and the ones ministered to.

In The Savior’s Name,

Bob Bell
