Early on Monday I picked up a book of poetry titled Did You Know? It’s the one written by our very own Norma Marshall. I read the following which has a lot of meaning for me and perhaps you too. It goes:
Did you know? This heart survived the fire- Your heart will too. You will emerge anew. Your faith, your friends, Your loved ones….Will see you through! The battle isn’t over. But you will find a way. A door will open Just a crack-- Then push with all your might! You will emerge anew. This heart survived the fire—Your heart will too.
Thank you Norma for expressing in your poetry the life experience that so many of us know.
This Sunday I will be preaching on that time period between the resurrection of Christ and the coming of the Holy Spirit. Jesus had basically told the disciples “Now don’t get into things!” Their reaction was like a lot of ours when we were told that by our parents. They just had to do something…and it left a lot to be lacking. Sunday the title of my sermon is “Don’t Get Into Things.”
I hope to see you in worship at either 8:00 a.m. or 10:00 a.m. this Sunday. Have a great week!
