Remarkable

It is good to have heroes, role models of virtue and humility and faith. Today I went to the funeral of one such woman—of all the people I have known, I believe she stands in a category by herself. Her spirit was courageous, her skills remarkable, her acceptance of the portion God gave her uniformly sweet, and her others-oriented service unparalleled in anyone I have ever met.

Ruth Rabenhorst was a sinner, and we were reminded in the meditation today, her remarkable life was borne out of a redeemed heart and a blood-bought pardon. I aspire to know Christ and be so conformed to His likeness as she was. May it be so, Lord.
