Frank loved Jesus
Loved his family
Loved the Bible
Taught the Bible
Shared the Bible
Gave out Bibles
Gideon’s Ministry was a long time habit
Frank’s church was near and dear

Self-taught, encouraged by the Lord
Raising his family was important
Teaching Sunday School a gift

Frank always did the best for his customers
Many of them close friends
They trusted Frank and were confident in his work

Capable, trustworthy, equipped and on time
Careful, strong, relentless and competitive
He cared for the poor and ministered to those in prison

Frank valued life, gave generously and lived to the fullest
His heart was filled with Jesus, his life spent working for Jesus
He saw Jesus by faith now he sees Jesus face to face

Charlotte was an exceptional wife
She loved Milton every day of their married life
Loving and nurturing her children
Her life was full; she always went the extra mile

She loved her church
A faithful and able church member
Jesus, her husband, and her children were her joy
Quiet and capable; she cheerfully lived each day

Wise and understanding
Charlotte knew when to push and when to pull
Her gentleness preceded her
She made others feel important and to her they were

A deep faith
A dedicated life
A person of distinction and significance
She made Jesus proud; her journey done; we miss her

An excellent banker

The timber business was tough; but Jerry was tougher

Hard working and gentle

A Sunday School teacher and a deacon at his church

Now Jerry is home

Love is special, too often only self-serving
You cared for me in a thousand special ways

I was hurting and you listened
Weakness displayed
It was an awful month
Nothing lovely about it
You cared for me

I was down and out
Gripped in failures cold, harsh hand
I wanted my way, yours was better
You put your arm around me and walked my way
You cared for me

Life has many pitfalls
Obstacles aplenty
Some I’ve created, wisdom isn’t my strong suit
You know this and you love me
You cared for me

We can prove the truth of my thinking
Forty-five Valentines
You still love me
You have cared for me all these years
Be my valentine- I love you

I was taught to fear as a tiny child, everyone around me lived fearful mean lives
Courage was never talked about, innate sense of foreboding about everything
Luck was a cornerstone, Do you feel lucky? Circumstances dictated that I seldom did
I didn’t have an attitude of gratitude, every situation was a battle with winners and losers

One day I met Jesus, for me Christ defined courage, He took my fear of mankind away
His Word taught me to fear/reverence God, my Father in heaven provided courage for me
That day I begin a walk that feared God, that didn’t fear man, the Lord was my strength
Jesus brought peace, He equipped me to face life one day at a time, His love changed me

Praise God from whom all blessings flow, praise God our Father, He is the mighty God
He seeks me every moment, The Lord is with me, He leads me, Praise the Lord
Jesus is my bright morning star, He is with me in the darkest night, praise the Lord
Praise God for giving me what I need to live, for taking my fear of the world away

I seek the Lord while He may be found, I seek the Lord night and day, He delivers me
I walk with the Lord, reading His Word, letting His promises and directives fill me up
I talk with the Lord, He is my high tower, I stand with Him, He is my all
I listen to the Lord, He calls me to be obedient, I do the next right thing

The Lord is good and worthy of all of my devotion, I serve Him
A glass of water to the thirsty, a warm coat to the cold, a meal to the starving
Always telling others of what Jesus is doing in me, I serve you
As I serve those around me, I am serving the Lord, partners with the almighty Lord Jesus
