Bob Fillmore was on our staff at Woods Chapel for a few years. Although his denominational roots were different than mine, we found a mutual respect and admiration. That is a gift isn't it? When you can find someone to talk to where you know you have different perspectives, but you both still love and appreciate each other?
I could always sense the depth of his wisdom and the reach of his kindness. I learned a lot from him.
It hurt when Bob and his family moved away. I have missed him.
Two days ago, I got an email from Bob. My computer actually warned me about the email since I had never heard from Bob on that email address.
I ignored my computers warnings and Bob and I exchanged emails. I had forgotten how connected I was to him. I mean I forgot how connected I am to him.
Isn't it interesting how you can grow close and spiritually connected to another person. You may not hear from them for a while, but then boom! there they are! I hope that you have lots of Bob Fillmores in your life. If you don't, keep looking for them.
It's a beautiful day in God's world be sure to see the good.
