…As we continue our spiritual journey this Holy Week…
We remember the "great cloud of witnesses" who have gone before us as an inspiration and a guide for us offering encouragement, pointing us in the right direction, and blessing us with words of kindness and patience.
I remember…
Mrs. Henry Dixon of Mebane UMC teaching a group of wiggly young boys in Vacation Bible School. She had such a gracious spirit – smiling, but with firm directions of how we were to behave.
…the generous strokes of prayers that have enveloped us with boldness and put a song in our hearts.
…the strength of those strong church communities who supported and admonished us to witness our faith with grace, dignity, and promise.
…the fellowship of small groups and the guidance and support received from leaders who showed us, through their example, how to live a God-filled life.
Thanks be to God!
Prayer: May the Grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the Power of the Holy Spirit strengthen and guide us always. Amen.
--Rev. Tom Loftis
