Yesterday, I received a report from the family of a Missionary. This Missionary has spent many years serving the people of Brazil. The report I received stated the family has found out the Missionary has inoperable pancreatic cancer. He has days or weeks to live.
I am thankful for those who surrender their lives to serve others. Only eternity will tell the rewards which this Missionary has gained. The Gospel seed has been sown. The Holy Spirit has used the seed to the saving of souls. Many great books have been translated into Portuguese. Several men have been instructed in the Word of God. They have been taught how to deliver the Word and minister to others. Yes, this is a life well lived.
Please join me in prayer for this family. They will mourn the loss of a loving husband, a dedicated father and Missionary. May God's richest blessings be with them during this time. May the peace of God which passes all understanding comfort them during this time. We pray God will strengthen this family during this time. Thank you for remembering this family in prayer.
This man's life made an impact for the kingdom. It is my prayer that my life does too. It is my prayer that you will desire to impact the kingdom of God for His glory!
