Pastor's Notes to Wesley
Hello Wesley,
It is 1:30 in the morning and I am watching Eta as it dissipates and moves past us. I know many were affected and I have been praying for all of us. I can hear the wind howling and the rain pelting the roof. No doubt Charles Tindley had experienced storms just like this when he wrote, “When the storms of life are raging, stand by me. When the world is tossing me like a ship upon the sea, Thou who rulest wind and water, stand by me. In the midst of tribulation, stand by me. When the host of hell assail, and my strength begins to fail, Thou who never lost a battle, stand by me. In the midst of faults and failures, stand by me. When I do the best I can and my friends misunderstand, Thou who knowest all about me, stand by me. In the midst of persecution, stand by me, when my foes in war array undertake to stop my way, Thou who saved Paul and Silas, stand by me. When I’m growing old and feeble, stand by me. When my life becomes a burden and I’m nearing chilly Jordan, O Thou “Lily of the Valley” stand by me.”

It does our souls well to remember that we are all a part of a much larger story that has been going on for thousands of years. God has designed this world and even storms have their place. May the God of all history see you through not only Eta, but the howling trials and troubles we all face. Perspective is seeing each life as a piece of a larger story, each storm as one just passing through, each trouble as if it will pass, and each sunrise as a sign of a new day, each bluebird of a reminder of how beautiful God has made this world, each friend and family member as a precious gift. Perspective helps us weather the storms.
I love being your pastor,
Ernie
