Yesterday Dave and I had been blessed to be with our pricey pals on the Celebration of Life for his or her father.
Leon was a kindly man – a stately man – an sincere man and a real cowboy. He lived and cherished totally for his eighty-nine years.
His household shared a few of their greatest reminiscences – from his kids, grandchildren, and nice grandchildren got here reminiscences of tenderness and caring. He taught them to work arduous, respect others, and have enjoyable. He was a very good neighbor and a devoted buddy.
I had been requested to share, his daughter needed to make certain the individuals who got here had a possibility to listen to the Gospel.
After listening to the testimony of his life by those that knew and cherished him dearest, the Lord introduced these verses to thoughts.
“The Lord is compassionate and merciful, gradual to get offended and stuffed with unfailing love.
9 He is not going to continually accuse us, nor stay offended perpetually. 10 He doesn’t punish us for all our sins; he doesn’t deal harshly with us, as we deserve. 11 For his unfailing love towards those that worry him is as nice as the peak of the heavens above the earth. 12 He has eliminated our sins as removed from us because the east is from the west.13 The Lord is sort of a father to his kids, tender and compassionate to those that worry him.” Psalm 103:8-13 NLT
Leon was a residing instance of God’s love, encouragement, kindness, and instruction. A great man, an clever man, one who loved the easy and sincere issues of life.
By no means doubt the kindness and compassion of our heavenly Father. God is nice!
“5 How variety the Lord is! How good he’s! So merciful, this God of ours! 6 The Lord protects these of childlike religion; I used to be dealing with dying, and he saved me. 7 Let my soul be at relaxation once more, for the Lord has been good to me.” Psalm 116:5-7 NLT
Have you learnt somebody like Leon? We should always all be so blessed. God provides us particular folks like him to point out us God’s character in human kind.
God is the good and kindly Father.
