8: The Least of These – Singing with Inspiration — 2 Comments

  1. Those are all great hymns!
    May I share one that I found in our hymnal?
    #581 “When the Church of Jesus”
    It may have been suggested before, but I never heard the words of that hymn sung before. What a powerful message to help us realize that just to worship isn’t enough, we need to care for “the least of these” out there beyond our church doors.

  2. Hi Ulrike
    Hymn 581 does have some wonderful words. We have so many hymns that just don’t seem to be used, as everyone has their favourites.
    Pointing out one like this, just may tempt people to try – and like, even love, a new hymn.
    Thank you for sharing.

At a camp meeting 40 years later, I happened to see Dr. I. demonstrating some kind of health product, if I remember correctly. (In my mind, I see only the image of him, much older, but still looking much like he did when I was a student, with a friend by my side.) I lingered a little but did not introduce myself. I briefly wondered whether he recognized me. I’m fairly sure that I was as recognizable to him as he was to me.

Had he changed? Or did he still feel superior in his “humility”? Should I talk to him? I didn’t know how to approach him, and was busy with friends. I still don’t know whether I should have said something. (Maybe I’m just a coward.)

If God wants him to see my story, his and my identity are clear enough in this post, that God can direct him to it.
