ON THE LEFT - PHIL LONGSWORTH - DECEASED 8-22-14!!!
What can I say about the most God-fearing, generous, giving, praying man in our lives. Phil is celebrating his first day in heaven with Jesus! For that we can celebrate. For his friends here it has been a devastating day.
The circumstances of his death remains as bazaar as everything else that goes on in this day and age.
Thank you God for our conversation Tuesday night. I remain breathless over how that came about.
His son who was arrested recently for trying to bury a man alive took a long time to sort out. We discussed how things happen in our lives we just don't understand. I told him I loved him and I would be praying for him. Two days later he is gone. We must remember to let those people in our lives know we love them, we can never take that for granted.
The family situation lends our Prayer Team Partners to decide that we will celebrate his life our way very soon. Coleen Sommers will officiate as he would have wanted.
Our lives have been touched by this man and he made our world better. He never failed to tell people they needed Jesus, he prayed for us every day and I wouldn't have taught The Full Armor of God without him pushing me.
He is free, free indeed! But we still wish he was here with us. He brought new meaning to the word
LOVE.
