REFLECTIONS- "Get all the advice and instruction you can, so you will be wise the rest of your life.  You can make many plans, but the Lord's purpose will prevail."

-Proverbs 19:20-21 

 

THE PASTOR'S PERSPECTIVE- She was the first person to ever love me.  She was the first woman I ever loved.  She nurtured me and raised me to love Jesus.  She is my Mom and  I love her with all my heart. Her name is Jewell & she is one of God's rare gems.  Mom prayed with a humble heart and served her Lord faithfully.  She was a devoted wife and mother.  Mom is 98 years old.  She has fought the good fight.  She has kept the faith.  Now she is finishing her race.  Mom is in Hospice Care and has probably about 2 weeks remaining here on earth before the Lord takes her home.

 

Please join me in praying that my Mom will remain comfortable, experience no pain and that the Lord is merciful and calls her home sooner than later.

 

 

Grace & Peace,

Dennis
