With Thanks

Encouragement along the way

Abide & Anchor has grown quietly, one reading, one reflection and one step at a time.

Along the way, we have been deeply grateful for the people who have read, shared, encouraged, prayed, commented, offered suggestions and helped others discover the site.

This page is simply a place to say thank you.

Not every kind word can be listed. Not every quiet encouragement is public. But every note, mention, recommendation and prayer matters.

We are thankful to the Lord for each one.

Thank you to our readers

Thank you to those who open Abide & Anchor for daily reading, quiet reflection, Bible study, prayer or encouragement.

We are quietly thankful that Abide & Anchor has now been visited from 80 countries. Some visits may be brief. Some readers may never write to us. Many will never be known to us personally. But every visit is a reminder that the Lord can use small things in places we may never see.

Our prayer is simple: wherever these pages are opened, may one Scripture reading, prayer or reflection help someone turn their heart toward the Lord and keep looking to Him.

Some come for the Daily Pause. Some spend time in Anchored Deep. Some read Stories & Reflections. Some use Battle Drills in difficult moments. Others explore Anchor Point paths, Christian history, gratitude prompts, Behold His Glory or Companion tools.

However you have arrived, thank you for being here.

Thank you for sharing Abide & Anchor

We are grateful for those who have told a friend, passed along a link, mentioned Abide & Anchor in conversation or helped someone else find it.

Some encouragement has come quietly through personal recommendation. Some has come through small group use, devotional use or readers adding Abide & Anchor to their phone Home Screen so they can return more easily.

These things may seem small, but they are not small to us.

In a noisy world, a simple word of encouragement can help a Christ-centred resource reach someone who may need it that very day.

A few quiet encouragements

We are also thankful for some quiet signs that Abide & Anchor is being used in ordinary but meaningful ways.

A Daily Pause reading has been used in a Christian school devotional setting, with several staff later adding Abide & Anchor to their screens so they could return more easily.

We have heard from retirees who use Abide & Anchor each morning over a cup of tea, from readers who say the reflections help them begin the day with steadier hearts and from others who have found the Bible studies helpful.

We are grateful that details of Abide & Anchor have also been shared through a church newsletter and that even someone outside the Christian faith has said the readings helped with daily life.

These are not large or loud things. But they matter. They remind us that the Lord can use quiet Scripture-shaped resources in homes, schools, churches and ordinary daily routines.

Thank you for comments and encouragement

We have been encouraged by kind comments from readers who have found the reflections helpful, thoughtful, steady or timely.

Some have spoken of particular readings that helped them pause, pray or think more deeply about the Lord. Others have encouraged us by saying that Abide & Anchor feels calm, substantial and centred on Christ.

We are thankful for those words.

Where comments are shared publicly, we will only do so with care. Names will only be used with permission. Otherwise, encouragement may be summarised in a general way so privacy is respected.

Thank you to those who pray and support

Thank you to those who pray for Abide & Anchor, encourage its growth or support the work in practical ways.

Abide & Anchor is still growing. More readings, reflections, studies and resources are being added over time. We are seeking to build something steady, useful and faithful rather than loud, shallow or hurried.

Your encouragement helps us keep going.

Please let us know if you are happy for a short comment to be shared publicly. We will not publish names or identifying details without permission.

Our prayer

Our prayer is simple.

May Abide & Anchor help people abide in Christ, anchor their hope in Him and remember His faithfulness over time.

If you have been part of that journey in any way, thank you.

We are grateful to God for you.

"Not to us, Lord, not to us, but to Your name give glory, for Your loving kindness, and for Your truth's sake."
