Also for your focus on Melchizedek, a priest for ever. It was good to be reminded of the foundations on which we build as priests. And the anti-cultural inheritance we receive. Blessings for your next anniversary. Come September, I hope to celebrate my 53rd anniversary as a priest and still wonder if I really exercised a worthwhile priesthood. This regardless of projects achieved. Experience has taught me that one's real affect in ministry is hidden in a thousand lives, for good or ill, in other words, it is often in the throwaway remark, comment or action that has been heard. A former CMS missionary, Dr Eileen Snow, said in 1964 that, she was trained to not spend her time asking about results but to seek to do everything to the best of her ability. At the time she said this she was long retired.<br />David Godfreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13959349863557521378noreply@blogger.com
