. . .someone to rejoice with us when we succeed, so He gave us pastors.
. . .someone to baptize us, so He gave us pastors.
. . .someone to explain when we’re confused, so He gave us pastors.
. . .someone to hold us when we weep, so He gave us pastors.
. . .someone to cheer us on when we fail, so He gave us pastors.
. . .someone to listen to our dreams, so He gave us pastors.
. . .someone to help sort out our callings, so He gave us pastors.
. . .someone to lay hands on us when we’re sick, so He gave us pastors.

Beautiful words!!
Thank you, dear friend. Trust all is well with you.
That picture is beautiful! So thankful for the pastors in my life – Bro. Murray Layne, Bro. Vaughn Morton and Bro. Philip White – I’ve been abundantly blessed!
Thank you, Sister McElhaney for your kind remarks. Indeed, what would we do without pastors? We would never make it. Along with you, I am very thankful. What wonderful pastors you have had in your life.
I’m so thankful!
