Bess

Bess was an old-timer in ministry. She started decades ago passing out newspapers and cigarettes to veterans in a hospital … she still spends time there … now minus the cigarettes. When I came of age, I looked about for something useful I might do. I was told, “See Bess.” She was still going strong. I asked Bess about her ministry and she told me things. I listened and carried her good counsel with me over the years … especially this: As I go about my ministry, joy will be found by being part of the well-being and happiness of others.
