Messenger of God

The Lord's messenger, gave this message of the Lord to the people: "I am with you," declares the Lord.

- Haggai 1:13 

This morning I popped in on one of our Special Needs Ministry adult classes at church. One of the ladies excitedly informed me that she had a note she had written for my wife and I, promising to give it to us later. I thanked her sincerely, but with the rush of the day her promised note had slipped my mind.

Later in the day, Chieko, my wife, opened up the folded paper she received and laid it out before us. A simple message was neatly printed on two lines of a long sheet of paper, "God Love U You" and underneath was plainly written, "Frank" (our last name). 

"It's such a simple message", Chieko said, "but we forget the most important things so easily." I thanked God for His messenger today bearing Good News, putting first things first, communicating in her own simple way: I'm so happy you're here - happy to be with you - and don't forget God is too.
