I was totally floored this morning when the only active Deacon we have ( death, illness, and old age ravages a church sometimes) called and floated the idea of me being a Deacon. The Pastor, my Deacon and I met tonight before the Business meeting to discuss further what I thought, whether I felt it was something the Lord wanted me to do... I asked that I be given time to seek the Lords will through prayer and study. I humbly ask that you folks remember me in your prayers, this is a big step, a big responsibility, if I'm not being called by the Lord to do it I want nothing to do with it.... but if I am being called by God there is nothing I want to do more.
and a praise report.
I electronically bumped into a friend from my teenage days.. I won't go into details but I will admit we were less than upstanding role models for the community back then. Praise God.. He is now a Baptist Preacher.. He led his father to the Lord several years ago.... I just couldn't quit smiling and crying when I read that email last night. :godisgood:
A descision and a praise report.
