(From David written by him the last 3 weeks here on this Earth to All)
“I beseech you therefore brethren by the mercies of God that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy acceptable unto God your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world; but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” Romans 12:1-2
I strive to live my life as an example of Jesus Christ, to be God’s servant my desire never fearing man only God. Many may think I am too BOLD –hard not bending in my quest to accomplish the work given to me—I am– forgive me if I stepped on your toes too hard during our times of sharing the load of labors together. A quote from William Penn
taken from his book “No Cross No Crown” says, “Godliness does not turn men out of the world, but enables them to live better in it and excites their endeavors to mend it; not hide their candle under a bushel, but to set it upon a table in a candlestick.” Well, I might have set my candle out on a haystack sometime during this life’s journey and started a few larger fires than anticipated, but I have no regrets. I now realize my work and my duty complete here on this Earth. My days here full and overflowing blessed by God Creator of the Universe. My vessel of clay worn out, but my spirit soars. I exhort you to accept Jesus Christ as your Savior now for the time is short before He Comes. You may only have today for tomorrow may be your entrance into Heaven.
Phyllis my forever love making me complete; you are the balancing wheel in my life, the other part of who I am, helping accomplish our life’s work. Fit together by God to bring into this world another generation of children who love God and serve Him our greatest legacy. Bethany ‘my bertha T bird legs’ I am so blessed to be your father and thank you for always being my little girl; my boys Aaron, Phillip, Caleb, Jordan & Paul my son-in law — now men you make me proud. Never have you been disobedient thank you for continuing to accomplish those huge dreams and my boys thank you for giving me my beautiful
daughter in laws. I could not imagine the great mix of Hall girls we now have in the family I love you Sarah, Sally, and Claire; thank you for my grandchildren. My 19 grandchildren the joy of life now and throughout eternity, each a gift from God and I pray you remember ‘pawpaw’ as the man who loved you with his whole heart expecting God to use each of you to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to this lost world. I see the great lives you will live. God in His infinite wisdom placed me in a wonderful large family. My brothers the Hall boys, never still, always doing, ready to create that next project especially if mom was out of sight and then our little sister came into our lives giving us some gentleness and much love. Because of the ‘size’ of our family meaning numbers never were we far from that best friend who we could play with or grow old with. Blessings from God my family generation to generation we stand honoring God, Family and Country. My extended family so large,
Phyllis tells me how many over and over, my love to you forever. I am blessed. Wonderful friends, know that without your help I could not have done my duty. I will carry you in my heart forever. Now continue your ‘duty’ with all diligence. There is much to be done.
“No one has yet believed in God and the kingdom of God, no one has yet heard about the realm of the resurrected, and not been homesick for that hour, waiting and looking forward joyfully to being released from bodily existence…..Death is hell and night and cold if it is not transformed by our faith. cialis online But that is just what is so marvelous, that we can transform death,” quoted by Dietrich Bonheoffer on his way to be martyred. The greatest wisdom I know and pass on is, “Jesus loves me this I know for the Bible tells me so,” taught to me as a child I now carry with me as my journey continues in my Heavenly Home. I look forward to our reunion. David
