Stright thrilled the congregation of
Auburn Missionary Church by
singing Answer the Call, Men, and
On Spirit Wings.
Tim Bryson, who is in his senior
year at Emmanuel Bible College,
Kitchener, brought the morning
message, with scripture from Mark
5: 21 - 43 and I Thess. 1: 1-3. Paul
gave thanks to God for faith,, love,
and hope found in the church at
Thesselonica, Bryson said. Faith
produces works. Love is a verb and
is hard work. Hope and endurance
goes hand in hand and many seek
for hope in a negative manner.
Jairus, who was a synagogue
ruler and a pious Jew, set aside
everything to come to Jesus when
his daughter was ill. He had faith to
believe that Jesus would heal his
daughter as he recognized the
supremacy of God. His faith could
have been dampened when
someone said his daughter was
dead but Jairus displayed not only
his faith but love and hope.
Fathers! "Do you display faith, love
and hope?" Bryson asked.
