Call Back

Good Morning,

Christmas day at Dogwood was a beautiful time, with wonderful music, a great meditation, and a powerful message from our Pastor, to a congregation that filled the building.  If you missed it, please go to the church website, and hear it there.

Jesus said to Peter:  "But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren." Luke 22:32

Christmas is now behind us, we are a week away from starting a new year, and we all are climbing higher.  Life is a steep climb, and it does the heart good to have somebody "call back" and cheerily beckon us, strength us, on up the high hill.  We are all climbers together, and we must help one another. This mountain climbing is serious business, but glorious. It takes strength and steady steps to find the summits. The outlook widens with the altitude. If anyone among us has found anything worth while, we ought to "call back."


If you have gone a little way ahead of me, call back--
'Twill cheer my heart and help my feet along the stony track;
And if, perchance, Faith's light is dim, because the oil is low,
Your call will guide my lagging course as wearily I go.
Call back, and tell me that He went with you into the storm;
Call back, and say He kept you when the forest's roots were torn;
That, when the heavens thunder and the earthquake shook the hill,
He bore you up and held you where the very air was still.
Oh, friend, call back, and tell me for I cannot see your face,
They say it glows with triumph, and your feet bound in the race;
But there are mists between us and my spirit eyes are dim,
And I cannot see the glory, though I long for word of Him.
But if you'll say He heard you when your prayer was but a cry,
And if you'll say He saw you through the night's sin-darkened sky
If you have gone a little way ahead, oh, friend, call back--
'Twill cheer my heart and help my feet along the stony track.

As far as I'm concerned, you cannot share we me too often, what the Lord Jesus has done for you.  Please "call back".  And never forget that you are loved!!!

Henry
