REMEMBER THE DAYS OF OLD

Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations:
ask thy father, and he will show thee; thy elders, and they will tell thee.
Deuteronomy 32:7

Don't be anxious about tomorrow. God will take care of your tomorrows too.
Live one day at a time....Matthew 6: 34

On Dad's family tree

His Norwegian father John

Was a carpenter by trade

In the Old Country....

This profession he carried

With him even beyond

When he moved to the States

After he and Grandma Anna married.

Grandpa's hands were skilled;

As an organist... his fingers he did play

Hymns for the congregation to sing

In his own church in Norway.

Later he helped to build

A Methodist church in Wisconsin

On a small parcel of ground....

It brought grace to the town.

The years flew by

Generations married,

Tears flowed for those buried.

Babies born while others die,

But the church lives on

To remember God's son

Though time brings change,

His message stays the same.

(Grandpa John died long before I was born,
and Grandma Anna passed away when I was five years old.)

Remembering an old picture of my husband and me on the evening we were married at a
candlelight service in my home town Methodist Church, December 27, 1969. (picture combination)
