The kindness, the graciousness, the hospitality, the generosity, (and may we not forget the music) that Steve has displayed towards and shared with others in this life, will never be forgotten! 🙏🏽 My prayer is that our Heavenly Father has Lovingly shown unto him His Wonderful Favor, and that He has granted unto Steve, with Open Arms, Entrance into the Kingdom! (I trust that he will be a great asset! The Lord Jesus, in His Love, in His Mercy, and in His Amazing Grace, sees what man cannot see, and for this, I give Him Praise Hallelujah!🙌🏽) 🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊♥️🙏🏽♥️🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊 Mrs. Gray and Family...Inez and Gary, may God Comfort each of you, all of you, in His own Special Way, and as Only He can, now, and in the days to come, with His warmth and with His Love. And may He bless each of you richly with whatever you need, and with all of the peace, joy, and love that your beautiful little hearts can hold. Grow closer everyone, for Jesus is soon to come! I pray that we'll all be ready for His Return. "Draw close to God and He will draw close to you." - James 4:8 I say this by way of reminder, while reminding myself as well. Let us pray for one another in these perilous times, and build one another up in love, which is the perfect bond of peace, for Jesus IS Love, and He has commanded us to Love one another IF we say that we belong to Him! Brothers and Sisters, let us show Love to one another. I extend my heartfelt condolences to you all. - With Sincerity, and with the Love of Christ, Melanie B. Jones
