( Psalm 139:14a , NKJV ).

I desire to encourage you today . The uniqueness of the hand of God in our lives as He directs our footsteps is a never-ending process . God has made an enormous investment of time in the ministry of the Christian Motorcyclists Association . The years of service between the Board of Directors and the evangelistic team alone totals 800 years . The figure would be astronomical if we were to calculate the entire membership and their total years of service .

What does God want to accomplish with all of this history ? Our purpose is to reach lost bikers and other people we come in contact with worldwide .

“ For we are His workmanship , created in Christ Jesus for good works , which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them ” ( Ephesians 2:10 , NKJV ).

God has proven by the team assembled and the incredible resources He has provided that He has much more for us to do . We have no idea where we will go from here , but we all have been given an excellent opportunity to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to places it has never been taken before .

God has laid out our life from birth to glory and wants us to fulfill His call . There will always be differences in a great team of people , and satan wants to drive a wedge between us , but God didn ’ t call you to be someone else . Value the differences , draw closer to the Holy

Spirit , understand that differences are part of God ’ s plan , and take charge of your circumstances as more than a conqueror .

I love and appreciate every one of you . CMA

John Sr and Becky Ogden , John is CEO / Chairman of the Board of Directors .
