SOME
OF MY PERSONAL HEROES
I
remember some of these heroes of faith. You probably never heard of them,
but they are the true heroes. They are the unsung heroes of every church,
the volunteer workers who pour untold amounts of energy and time into
doing the work of the Lord.
They
represent the "church" -
In
Motivation
- could never pay someone enough to do what volunteer leaders do for free,
week after week, year after year.
In Commitment
- their lives are testimony to faithfulness. When you want to understand
faithfulness, think of someone who was your teacher and think of how they
impacted your life.
They're
Busy - they were
all busy people with responsibilities outside the church. But somehow
they managed to carve out time for the work of the Lord.
They were
Models - their
walk and their talk matched. If it didn't, their work in the church was
soon forgotten.
