Did You Miss Thanksgiving? Did You Miss Thanksgiving? a sermon by Pastor Clarence William Page November 27, 2011 If you did not thank Almighty God you missed Thanksgiving. 18 Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will bring again the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have mercy on his dwellingplaces; and the city shall be builded upon her own heap, and the palace shall remain after the manner thereof. 19 And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry; and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small. (Jeremiah 30:18-19 [The Holy Bible {KJV}]). |
| He who, without following the blueprint drafted by Almighty God, undertakes the pursuit of leading a people or building a nation is not wise. - Pastor Clarence William Page |
| Being a Friend to Man Being a Friend to Man by Pastor Clarence William Page July 17, 2011 Yesterday I received a telephone call from a minister informing me of a man in distress. It seems that he was stranded in a strange city (U.S. city) and was weary, frightened and unsure of what would become of him. Over the next eighteen hours I placed numerous telephone calls to that city in attempts to find a solution to what I deemed a temporary problem (better solutions, I felt, would manifest on Monday). Time after time my pleas for help for the man were met with the brick wall of "rules". Person after person hid behind various excuses: "I don't have the authority." "My supervisor is not here." "I am the intake supervisor but I am on vacation." "Our medical intake person is not here." "We don't let people stay just overnight." He was sent to one place but it was deemed to be "unsafe". Finally, after midnight, I called the city's police department and asked if they could help. They were nice enough to wake up a social worker from the city's Child Protective Service and have him call me. The social worker recommended a "safe place" for the man. I called the "safe place" and was told that the supervisor would not be in until 6:00 A.M. A few minutes after 6:00 A.M. I called and spoke with the supervisor. The result: "We don't let people stay just overnight, it's against our policy". I was appalled at the excuses. I was just asking that they accommodate the brother until things opened Monday morning. Frustrated, I finally prayed to God and told Him that, "If you give me enough money I will build places where people can stay overnight". Then, I began to remember how many cities there are in America and began to dispair of my own prayed promise. Approximately three hours ago I received a phone call telling me of another unexpected twist in this unfortunate story. More prayer was required. While reflecting on the situation my thoughts landed on a poem I learned many years ago. The poet was not thought to be a particularly "religious" man but his sentiments had always found a welcome place in my heart. Sam Walter Foss is the poet and his poem is titled, "The House by the Side of the Road" ( http://www.seacoastnh.com/Arts/Poetr...de_of_the_Road ).
