PaSTOR D (Michael Dennis)
Sis. Debra my heart is truly with you and the family on the loss of Steve. My heart has always held a special place for Steve. We always social connected and enjoy sharing conversation, talking about God, and playing the guitar.
He kept the faith and met the challenges of afflictions for many years. Lord God Almighty!
He’s resting in peace in the eternal abode of God.
Your strength and composure through Steve’s illness has been noteworthy and remarkable on every level. Truly you have stood by Steve in faith.
Through God’s grace and love, and the prayers of family & friends, you and your family have all that is necessary to make it through each day’s ups and downs.
Be encouraged and continue to find meaning and purpose for your life. Let me know if there is anything further I can do during this time. Again you have my condolences.
2 Corinthians 4:7-12
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
12 So then death worketh in us, but life in you.
God bless,
PaSTOR D (Michael Dennis) Steve Nager’s musical instructor
