Today I had the pleasure of visiting a dear lady in our church that loves JESUS with all of her heart. She is a widow and is in her 80's. She has an incredible ministry as she encourages our leaders and her pastor on a regular basis. She is a rock and one of the matriarch's of our church.
As I reflect on my visit with her today, God taught me several things:
1. God always puts people in your life that will bring hope and blessing to you.
2. God uses people to bring others to Jesus no matter their age or circumstance. (This precious lady always goes with us on door to door visitation before VBS each year. WOW, what a testimony at her age)
3. God uses people like her to show those of us that are young how we can live with JOY throughout our lives continually. (She is a model of GRACE and JOY to our church)
As I have reflected on our visit today, I realize that people like her are why I love to serve as a pastor.
Thank you JESUS.
