Where Everybody Knows His Name
“For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?”
Matthew 16:26A KJV
Almost everywhere we go Beau runs into someone that he knows, or someone who knows him from the neighborhood, or a work relationship, or some social event. It’s amazing because I don’t know that many people, and not too many people know my name. I’m ashamed to tell you that I don’t know many of my neighbors. I come and go, and my neighborhood has changed over the years.
As strange as this may sound, I enjoy reading life stories, or biographies because I am fascinated by the way that people live their lives. For some reason, it is at the close of their life that we learn of the impact they’ve had. I love it when we go out as a Church family and Pastor is introduced. I am encouraged by the things that other preachers say about him; even things they may never have said to him. I find it amazing that his life has so much impact, that so many people are blessed by his gift.
