I got mail

[THE RAzEr]

This week a lot happened. My wife got a new job. She does basically the same thing with less stress, and rush. makes more money, and a benefit package which saves about $400 monthly from my paycheck. I came into work tuesday to find a little in my mail box, that i've gotten a riase.
I got my tax check for my wife and i in the mail this week.

What could be better?

Well let me tell you. A card came in the mail. It was from a family we have not seen for a long time. They came to the Lord many years ago (back in the early "80's. We dedeicated their children, and i was called back maybe 20 years ago to perform their daughters marriage. This card said some nice things which i want mention, but this i will mention: "We have you on our min, and wanted to say we love you."

If there were a race between which of these tjings which came in the mail this week were #1, this card from some one who feels we helped them along the way is first place. the other things are so far behind, it would be as if they never ran.

I do put a cup of water in the sea of how much i appreciate the great persons of God who have held me up before Him in all my frality.
many of them are gone, and many remain. I love the very thought of them with all my heart.

My father was my Pastor. He was a great father he was a great Pastor. henry lamb was our pastor when we went to TC: He was a king and loving man. HM Biggers was more than an Overseer, he was a Father to a young couple he married: if the word Christian needed a picture to show and what one looked like, Bishop H.M. Biggers and his lovely wife would fit the bill. My great mentor of my life is Fred Fisher, Sr., a man who did not, but i believe could have said to me"follow me as I follow Christ". He did not have to say it, it will ever be an honor that I knew this man, and to serve him to me was to serve Christ.. My beloved Poppa Alva Wilson. We have many teachers, but not many Fathers. I am so glad Bro. Wilson lets me hang with him and the young crowd. He says God wants him to love the ugly. He says its easy to love the pretty ones. Now every body can know why Poppa Alva Wilson loves me. Oh, yeah, I thank God for Bo Robinson.

I knew L.V. Jones, M.S. Curry, M.A. Tomlinson, Ralph Badger, Sr., and a host of people who werre the real deal. I am bless! I am bless! Every day that I live I am blessed!

Just felt like sharing some reasons.
