Godspeed

Luke 11: 6 For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him?

Godspeed

He walks a blazing future trail
Behind him a comfort zone
A blanket of truth is his guide
He will never walk it alone.

Cradled is his love of God
A valiant road in life
Blessed be the journey taken
Beside him walks his wife.

Onward Christian soldier
Marches into the unknown
Going with the grace of God
The spiritual Light he’s shown.

He leaves behind a trail of sheep
All lined up in the field
We hang on every sermon
As our strength and mighty shield.

We offer him our blessing
Go forth and plant your seed
Always stay true to your faith
With love and peace, Godspeed!


Rev. 7: 17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

*Note: This is for Pastor Mike as today is his last
sermon before he moves on with God's hand guiding.

It made it extra special when he said to me it touched him and how nice it was!

THAT is why I write poetry! :)

(I sent it to him last night via email, he doesn't do the blogs and facebook thing) :D

What an admirable man!
