We lost a good one yesterday...
A good friend died yesterday. Carl was a long time leader at Celebrate Recovery, and was probably the best display of a servant I have ever seen. Not only did Carl serve but he did so gladly without ever wanting attention.
I'm grieving today. I haven't really lost that many people. When my Grandpa died I was a mess for weeks. Losing Carl is right up there. He brought joy wherever he went.
Carl impacted literally thousands of lives. You can't ask for more than that. He made a difference for Christ, and I know that he's with Him now.
When I think of Carl, I think of James 4:10, "Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will lift you up."
That's Carl. Humble servant that never wanted attention, that everyone knew, and everyone loved.
He will be missed.
