Seeing What God’s Doing Through What He’s Done



An Inkling
Lou Skidmore was here with us this past weekend for one of our 75th Anniversary celebrations.  At the Saturday night dinner we showed some video selections from his reflections on his years here.  For those who saw it, here’s an encore, and for those who missed it – you’ll see why they wanted an encore.  (Next week I’ll send out the video of Earl Morey.)
Skid was one of the pastors here in the 70s and 80s, and had a huge impact on St. Giles.  As you’ll see in the video, he was and is very much alive in the Spirit, in whose power he ministered to great effect.  And for those of you who knew Nancy, it’s a wistful video, as she went to be with the Lord about one month later.
The point of attending to what God has done is not to glory in the past, but to develop eyes more attentive to what God is doing now.  Watch and enjoy!  And may God grant us eyes attentive to what he wants to do next, both through St. Giles and each of us!
Blessings,
Keith
