2023 was an interesting year. I feel like it was the first somewhat normal year after a pandemic we had never seen before. Regardless of the difficult and strange season we have been in, many have supported this ministry and this publication, and we’re grateful to you. Know that you are prayed for daily. After doing this for over 20 years you are considered extended family in the kingdom of God.
The last two years have been different but have also created unique opportunities. Opportunities to expand in digital formats by increasing and making the most of our online presence. That includes a digital magazine available to thousands, social media channels, and our new interactive and user-friendly website.
On our new website we are able to promote our supporters and have had the blessing to increase our web traffic by 50% with the offering of videos and over 700 articles to thousands. If you have not seen it yet click www.WheelsOfGrace.com. We would love to hear your feedback.
Our distribution is back, distributing to over 30 national motorcycle events. Christian motorcycle magazines were distributed via your motorcycle Ministry booth and vendors like RM Leathers, thank you! If you would like to have magazines for your event email us at info@wheelsofgrace.com.
More churches, truck-stops, motorcycle lawyers offices, motorcycle ministry headquarters, Christian, motorcycle club houses, and military bases received the Wheels Of Grace magazine. If you know someone that is serving in a military base, contact us by email or phone number 951-777-0503 and we will send them a complimentary one-year subscription, no strings attached. We appreciate and honor our Military. In addition, if you have a good testimony, or a story about God’s faithfulness, God’s love, or simply a Godincidence that happened in your life, send it to us.
Having started a new year, we want to encourage you to do more with your calling. Do more than you ever have, take steps of faith, and begin new adventures, as no one ever succeeded by being comfortable. Times are changing and I feel that God is asking every one of us to push harder, do a little more, and walk by Faith not sight. Most importantly to spend time with our Father daily. That’s where it all begins and that is what He wants from us the most. Don’t make the mistake by thinking serving in ministry is the same as spending time with Him. Praying, and reading His Word, is the best one-on-one we can have with our Father. Psalm 61:8 says: “So I will sing praise to Your name forever, that I may daily perform my vows.”
Thankfully, we have someone to lead, protect, and bless us at every step, Someone who is excellent in guidance.
In Isaiah 28, the Lord admonished His people to stand on a “sure foundation” (verse 16), to listen and hear His voice (verse 23), to let him teach them (verse 26). Without God, we’re lost in the thicket, trying to find our own way without a working knowledge of the future. Our Savior knows the future, and He goes ahead of us, leading and guiding.
As you enter through the coming year, if you don’t know what to do about a decision or problem, ask for His guidance. Tell him you want His way. He is “the Lord of hosts, wonderful encounter, counselor and excellent guide.”
So, this year, get out there and support your local run, your dealership, your church, and your ministry. As we see this world changing daily, and we see some things we never thought we would, remember the words of St. Luke in the book of Acts in chapter 20 and verse 24: “But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.”
