A Truly Joyful and Rewarding Time in My Life
Becoming involved with various First Baptist Church projects following my retirement has become a truly joyful and rewarding time in my life. Being engaged in church and community activities, I have learned new skills, and I have had an opportunity to meet some incredible people. Perhaps the most gratifying experience is having the opportunity to witness the sincerity of individuals who strive daily to be a blessing in the lives of fellow human beings.
As I reflect on my experience as a member at First Baptist Church, I am better able to understand the life application and meaning of my favorite scripture which is found in Psalms 1:3. In the King James Version it states…”And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”
God has brought me to this place and time such that perhaps my walk as a “Believer” will become a source of encouragement for one of God’s creations. My prayer is that I be a fruitful tree and that I be a source of encouragement to those who I meet along my journey in life.
