The little church on the corner, was very quiet. Their pastor died today, and went to heaven. He went to see the Master, And tell Him all… The little church, and the quiet, pastor-preacher, were burned to the ground, but first shot, in front of witnesses. Sadly, no one mourned, They were all afraid. He told them, of the King, They showed up, every day. They took his time, They heard his words, They cheered him on, all… from the bleachers. The little church on the corner, is very quiet.

Peter denied him three times. Somehow that gives a kind of hope for all those even less strong (weaker) souls. The best ever, thoughts for your day. Ann

I’m curious to know more about this story. I’m left wondering why no one mourned his passing.

I guess I was thinking about the man that died the other day. They said he was stoned in MN. I could not believe that anyone could be stoned here in America? I was so sad.
