I hope that this blog post finds you well. This morning I awoke to find out that a dear woman I know had gone be with the Lord early this morning. Denise has battled cancer for a few years now. Denise was quite a special lady to me and many many others. She was known in our town for loving the Lord and serving him. She was my very first Sunday School teacher. I am so grateful for the seed she planted in my life. Thinking back she was probably one of the first ladies to share the gospel message with me. I still remember one Sunday she gave the class band-aids with the message attached, "God heals the brokenhearted". I kept the band-aid for many years. I imagine that the band-aid might still be in my room at home with my parents.
Reflecting on her life of service makes me think on the many people who have poured into my life so that I may be where I am today. I am so thankful that God has placed these people in my life. Here are just a few....Denise Burson, Randy and Donna Meacham, Keith and Ginger Cornelius, Jim and Kim Martin, Peggy Banks, Terry and Marcia Harper, Bryan and Luanne Owensby, Pastor Chandler, Pastor Neil and Tracy Awbrey, Al and Judy Awbrey and all of my family. My list could go on forever. I am sure yours could too! I praise God for all of these faithful servants who poured into my life and shared Christ with me. I love Jesus more because of them.
My question for you is this: Who are they in your life? Who shared Christ with you? Take a moment today and thank God for these people. Spend a few moments today and lift them up in prayer.
