FRAN LARSON WAS A WONDERFUL INSPIRATION, AND STILL IS. HELEN IS HOME WITH HER LORD, AFTER HAVING DIED SO SUDDENLY SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. I PRAISE GOD FOR SALEM, AND ALL THE SPECIAL PEOPLE THAT INFLUENCED MY LIFE ALONG THE WAY.

This post was very timely. It reminds me that whatever I do ...do as unto the Lord. It may seem like something small but God can use it to teach and encourage another, just like Fran and Helen. <br /><br />In the world's eyes, Fran and Helen may not be viewed as exemplery. The high academics would hold more weight.<br /><br />However, in God's eyes ...Fran and Helen are so valuable for His purposes.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Debbie<br /><br />P.S. I had to laugh at your comment on Heart Choices about the words to "In the Garden". How right you are!

We need both. <br />My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit's power,so that your faith might not rest on men's wisdom, but on God's power.<br />1 Corinthians 2:4-5Joyce Ligharihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13853208533065317514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3947901677057635396.post-45379459675090501312010-03-16T10:39:54.969-04:002010-03-16T10:39:54.969-04:00I have taught for a total of about 10 years.

I taught photography and computers to adult ed students, guitar at a private High School, and computers to Pre-K thru 12 at a Christian School.<br /><br />I like to teach things I am passionate about - art, music, gadgets, Jesus... the church let me teach a few things too. But what I like to do best is demonstrate God's word with power as an outworking of the Holy Spirit. A lot of Christians want head knowledge - not so much an encounter with a supernatural God.<br /><br />Just reading through Acts, from healing to casting out demons, preaching and having a large number of folks get saved - wow!Davidhttp://www.fireandgrace.comnoreply@blogger.com
