Woke up this morning to news of a tragedy. Been a tough month for the flock, this being the third or fourth homegoing, and second unexpected and tragic one. Can either say this is one of the darkest months for the flock, or one of the brightest.Wondered a few weeks ago what the purpose of the church was. In instances of tragedy, watching the flock mobilize to support one another, watching the flock bind together to love the sheep in the way commanded to in John21, and those questions are pretty much answered, aren't they? Lord can send dark months like this only to watch the body shine.
Discipleship or fellowship? How about love?
