The following is a blog I wrote last June. I wanted to post it on here to recognize the great man mentioned in it - Fred. You'll understand as you read. Blessings! - blake
This past week God has been reminding me of who I am as His servant. When people think of the role of a Pastor, they often think of simply Sunday mornings when the man who holds that role gets into the pulpit and delivers the message. But oh, how that is only the pep rally! The rest of the week holds so much more than Sunday mornings!There are planning meetings, "committee meetings", counseling sessions, visitations, late night calls from those who just need to talk, disasters, crisis after crisis, and of course, weddings and funerals. This week I think I've experienced all those things...and it's only Thursday! And today it hit me - the vast spectrum between the wedding I'm doing Friday night and the funeral I'll take part in on Saturday...Though we know Bro. Fred is in heaven now - which means his life isn't over at all - his passing into glory does mark the end of a life here on earth lived for Christ. We'll miss you Bro. Fred...And at a wedding we'll celebrating the beginning of a lifelong relationship...Anyway, just a thought from my heart today. I'll begin trying to blog daily, first thing in the morning after me and God have our chat...maybe I can share some fresh insights after He's begun speaking to me for the day...
