I received the call at the age of twelve
from my local pastor.
He talked to mom about challenging me.
He thought he should ask her
if she thought it would be ok for him
to see what I would say
and as I walked up and he gave me the call
he knew that she would pray.
Six years later a call was extended
to serve a student charge.
I was a little college student
and my churches were not large.
Each time I received a new appointment
with churches given me
I found that no matter where I was to go
it’s where God wanted me.
Each congregation had loving people
and problems were a few
but God gave great reassurance to me
that I’d know what to do.
But in all the many situations
one thing was there for me.
In good times as well as in problem times
I was where God wanted me.
So when I retired to a part time church
to keep from being bored
it helped with a big transition in life
and service to the Lord.
And now even though I have retired twice
and serving again I see
that even in my years of retirement
I’m where God wants me to be.
