"Cuando pases por las aguas, Yo estar� contigo; y cuando pases por los r�os, no te anegar�n. Cuando pases por el fuego, no te quemar�s; las llamas no le prendieron fuego." (Isa�as 43: 2) Your smile, the look in your eye when you had another wisecrack coming, your passion leading others into worship, your perseverance and faithful dedication to build God's Kingdom will not be forgotten. I remember you quoting 'if you build it, they will come.' Many did, many of us are scattered around as the proverbial lost coins in the Kingdom, and some stayed faithful to the end. Lord I pray that you will receive Pastor Bob into your open arms, and petition thee that thou grant the requests of your servant and as he enters into his rest, that you might find him faithful, and leave behind guardians for the flock and pastures and harvest yet to come. That there will always be an open window of comfort and blessing that cannot be closed over his family, those he called friends, and the congregation of those he ministered to that hunger and thirst for your righteousness. I pray for resolution for any open ends, and concerns that may arise and may you raise up another servant, and priest of the Most High God to step in and carry the ark. Rest in Peace, and may God give comfort to those of us who have yet to cross the Great Divide and who yearn for the Kingdom that shall know no end. Amen.
