🤔Remember🤩

 Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.                     Benjamin Franklin 

Hebrews 13:7 (KJV) Remember them who have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation. Who is it or who are they that you yourself “Remember” who took time to teach you the “the word of God” Maybe a friend, a Sunday School teacher, a Pastor, a person you work with who is it? Wow this brings back many memories. My first teacher was my Pastor Raymond Gray, A man I met at Bible college who became my friend Jim Smith, The man who poured his life into me was my second Pastor James A. Peppers. I could spend the day writing about him. Then my third Pastor Ray Hill the time he spent teaching me, talking to me and taking me to see and pray for others. I was called to Pastor First Baptist of Youth and spent 22 years there. Yes I remember those who poured into me and took the time to teach me but the one who taught me the most was and is the Lord Jesus Christ. Oh I must not forget Steve Sparks who taught me to reach those who know not God. Steve Sparks eyes would fill up with tears that ran down his face when he told of the goodness of God. What did I learn from Steve? I learned I can’t do what he does, but I can do a little bit of what Steve does. Thanks, men. All these men are in Heaven today. I will never forget what these men taught me even when they didn’t think they were. I have a life verse, all that means is what Bible verse points to what you want most. Here’s mine  2 Timothy 2:15 (KJV) Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. I want to know what God says and my Bible will show me and teach me that. Thank you men who taught me not what you thought but what God said. That’s what matters. Oh yeah, there’s a Heaven for my Bible tells me so!
