A pastor, who had been retired for a couple of years and lived in a nearby town, Gary, was brought in to help guide us for a couple of months until our new pastor could arrive. Gary had thought he was done with ministry at the front of a church until this door was opened by God. In stepping through, Gary realized that he still loved being a pastor and perhaps all he needed was a change in location. Our church also loved him. Alas he did have to let go and let our new pastor come in, but I am sure that Gary would come out of retirement again should the need arise.

And it is very true that we are never done doing God’s work. In the truest sense of ministry our very thoughts, words, and deeds should show Christ to others. Each of our lives is our ministry for God’s creation.
