Serving the Lord

"...Praise the Lord! Praise God in His sanctuary! Praise Him in His mighty firmament! Praise Him for His mighty acts! Praise Him according to His excellent greatness! Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet; Praise Him with the lute and harp! Praise Him with the limbrel and dance; Praise Him with stringed instruments and flutes! Praise Him with loud cymbals; Praise Him with clashing cymbals! Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord!" Psalm 150:1-6 NKJV

An exerpt from the Pastor's Paragraph today...
...But today as we come to worship the King of Kings, we also come to honor a dedicated servant who has blessed so many through the decades with his music. ...A plain spoken, to the point, humorous kind of guy who ordered his life as an example to us all, God first, family second and his church third. Many a day I'm sure Harry had to deal with the issues of church finances as he worked so often in that realm. Many a day while serving as a deacon, I'm sure he had to put his own desires aside to serve the kingdom of God as he had been called and ordained to do. Many a day has he served his family, who I know love and cherish him dearly. Harry has been my teacher, me fellow deacon, my pianist, my visitation partner, my teammate and one of my mentors since the late seventies. I find it a real privilege and honor today to call him my friend. ...Thanks brother for freely serving our God and King for all of these years. I look forward for the opportunity of many more years to serve our Lord alongside you! ...
