Besides our music ministry I have had the privilege of assisting in a assistant pastor role at Calvary Chapel Hemet. God has been stretching me in many new areas of ministry.
I met Tim back in December when he came in for some pre-marital counceling. He had recently surrendered his life back to the Lord after discovering he had serious cancer. I started to prepare for the possibility of officiating at my first wedding ceremony. The couple did not end up staying together and Tim's condition got worse. Tim went home to be with the Lord a week before Easter. The family asked if I would preside over the memorial and I agreed.
Little did I know when I first met Tim that instead of preparing for a wedding that I would be preparing for a funeral service. The Bible says that our life is but a vapor (James 4:14). None of us know how long we have in this life. I rejoice that Tim was wise to realize this and commit his life back to the Lord.
We are to make the most of every day because every day is truly a gift from God. Serve him with all your heart!
Blessings...Michael
