Northside Methodist Church
Yesterday, I attended the service at Northside Methodist Church for the second time in the last 45 days. Gaye and I were married here so it holds a a unique and very special place in my heart. Dr. Gil Watson, who married us, was on vacation so the Church had an ole friend provide the sermon, Rev. Bill Floyd. From what I undertsand , Rev. Floyd has a tremendous reputation, so I was looking forward to hearing his sermon. I was not disappointed. Rev. Floyd must be in his eighties - in other words, he has seen a great deal in his christian walk and life. Towards the end of his simply wonderful and hopeful message, he stated "I have seen many of my friends, fellow congregation members and family put in a box. (He is referring to Dieing). "At my stage in life, I am more sure than I have ever been, that people of God, will never see their friends and family for the last time"
A blessed and divine affirmation that comforts this weary soul!
A Mighty Amen......
