]]> Comment on Thoughts on Holy Week by William J Bryan http://mikeramsdell.com/2011/04/14/thoughts-on-holy-week/comment-page-1/#comment-861 William J Bryan Sat, 23 Apr 2011 13:32:45 +0000 http://mikeramsdell.com/?p=494#comment-861 Your Friday evening message on going to the place we don't want to go, your example of going four hours across Texas to the hospital room of a dying man, and the connection to Jesus' going to the cross were dead on for the Good Friday service. I have to admit that the Good Friday service is my least favorite service, but I go anyway - to remember what Christ did. Another place I hate to go on Good Friday but I go anyway, is watching Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ." I don't enjoy this movie. But I make myself watch it. I usually split it up through the day. It's too much for me to take in one sitting. It makes me realize what a holy, loving, and heroic God went through to bring me to Him. Unlike Jesus' disciples and family on that first Good Friday, I know the story has a wonderful ending. Looking forward to Resurrection Sunday!

As I work for the Department of Defense we are constantly struggling with wars and threats of war, and we repsond to these things in due process. I am seeing the destruction in the Japans, and as before the destruction that has been and will continue to happen and the question always presented itself; "what is happening?" Thank you for relating your answer so smoothly into God's word and scripture and giving me a concrete message to share with my friends and family that are going through the same mental trials in realtion to this. Our hearts and prayers to all of those lost and hurt in the chaos in Japan. Much love, your borther, jaimes Pastor Ramsdell,

Your # 6 is of course very meaningful to us at this time. Plan to share this with the family as we celebrate the New Year today in Finland. Thanks so much for your wise counsel. We love our church family immensely and have missed being there. Disappointed we could not see last Sunday's sermon. In His Love, ~Sherry Brown Thanks so much for this, Mike!

Your words of love and gratitude for him echo in my heart for my own father. We are so blessed to have earthy father's who guide and care for us just as God care's for each of his children.

I don't like to acknowledge that there were several years of my life when I didn't believe that to be so. I want to thank you and FUMC for the changes I have experienced in my journey since joining this church. There are so many opportunities to learn, to grow in faith, and to serve. Our family....all of it...have indeed been blessed. Mike I am grateful that we have the opportunity, but really the responsibility , to listen for that “whisper” each and every day.

It is about answering a call each day to do what God wants you to do that day. If each of us did this with consistancy, what could we each achieve and accomplish for the kingdom?

This is difficult for one who was raised knowing a judging God and not hearing enough about the loving Lord God.
