10-09-07 Perspective -- 1 Samuel 9:7

Your support of Dwight Clough Ministries allows us to make these spiritual growth resources available worldwide. A $50 donation underwrites for a new chapter in the Discoveries Bible or a new devotional. A $75 donation underwrites a prayer ministry session. The "Donate Here" button allows you to donate any amount online. The "Mail In Here" button allows you to donate any amount through the mail.

I want to thank you, my readers in 40 nations for making Discoveries - Inspiration in Your Inbox a success from 2002 to 2009. I believe God has led me to make some changes.

Discoveries is now available as follows:
One full year as a single web page here
One full year as a pdf document - feel free to save it on your computer - here
One full year as a text document - this is the smallest file
One full year as a Word document

Discoveries will no longer be available as an email from discoveries@dwightclough.com. However, beginning about 1/14/09, Discoveries Devotionals will be available for members of the Empower Good community. Membership is $5 per month and details are at EmpowerGood.com.

Many thanks, God bless, and be encouraged!
Dwight

- Evangelist Tom Stamman

"Quite some time ago, I used to ask God for an angel that could answer to all my questions. An angel for company and comfort. But not long ago, I started receiving your emails (Discoveries), honestly, I haven’t got a clue how or when did I sign up. The unthinkable is, every message you sent that I have read was exactly the answers I needed to face the situation at hand. Strange, right? But I really do think God answered my prayer. He sent me an angel through you. Your messages seem to be God’s words to me. Answering me, teaching me. I am grateful for this heavenly gift and I would like you to share this miracle I received from the Father."

"Your book is therapy for me . . . you have struck gold . . . there is "life" in your book. I found myself laughing and crying . . . I believe I saw what God must think of me ... "

"Thank you for sending these devotions everyday! They are awesome! Today's devotional was exactly what I have been thinking about and how to battle this such issue! Keep up your awesome ministry!"

"The first thing I do every morning when I turn on the computer is to read your encouraging message. You have blessed my heart and improved my daily meditation on the word of God. . . . I am writing this mail from Dar es salaam, Tanzania, East Africa."

"i really have to thank you for your encouraging words they almost make me feel as if there coming right from the lord himself"

"Dwight, i am originally from uganda, but i live and work in the UK. But i send the your inspirations almost across the globe. God bless your unselish heart."
