On Saturday July 26, 2014 I had the privilege of officiating our firstborn son’s wedding. It was a tranquil setting on his fiance’s family’s farm, near Delmas, Saskatchewan.
Four years earlier on May 29th, I had the same pleasure at our youngest son, Jean Marc’s wedding in Edmonton, Alberta.
I am proud of my sons and happy for them and their spouses. There were four things I told them before they got married.
#5 – They Call Me “Pastor” (1,620 Views / 313 Shares)
Being a pastor is not something to which I aspired. It certainly wasn’t a childhood dream. By nature, I’m a loner. (My teenage ambition was to be a hermit. Really) By nurture, I’m a people person.
I’m like a turtle on a fence post. When you see a turtle on a fence post you know it didn’t get there on its own – someone put it there. My fence post is a platform for sincere respect and genuine love for the people God has entrusted to my care.
