GOOD MORNING!
Having to grow up in the church my two boys Junior and Doc have pretty much seen everything that could possibly happen under a steeple however now and then something happens that causes us all to pause for a moment of reflection.
One Sunday morning several weeks ago, Reverend Bob noticed little Doc was staring up at the large plaque that hung in the foyer of the church.
It was covered with names, and small American flags were mounted on either side of it.
The seven-year-old had been staring at the plaque for some time, so Bob walked up, stood beside the boy, and said quietly, "Good morning, Doc."
"Good morning," replied the young man, still focused on the plaque.
"What is this?" Doc asked.
"Well, son, it's a memorial to all the young men and women who died in the service."
Soberly, they stood together, staring at the large plaque. Little Doc’s voice was trembling and barely audible when he asked, "Which service, the 8:30 or the 10:55?"
Is your spiritual life felling dead and routine as of late? Then let me encourage you to reconnect with our Creator through prayer, you’ll be glad you did!
