As a young Christian I had a strong affinity towards the older folks and such was the late Sister Lena Robinson, musician extraordinaire and mother of our Pastor. She said something one night in service that has lived with me throughout the years. This is what she said "Do not ask if something is right or wrong, but rather ask if it will bring glory to God."
As you read today's article keep this thought at the forefront of your mind.
I well remember a diligent pastor who summoned his people to a new venture in church growth with the sagacious call to “imagine a place.” Imagination is indeed a vital ally in the life of Christian faithfulness. In your busy world, in today’s difficult circumstances, in the hustle and bustle of your life, I invite you to “imagine a place” and to “put on the compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience” that will allow others to see and experience a different way, a different example, and a different source.

Thank God for his grace and mercy, they are new every morning. I'm striving to be a Q.C.
