Pastor Kolke

It is amazing the ways God works. One of my first days at work, I had this elderly gentleman ask me where our pond stuff was, so I showed him. We talked for a long time, and he told me about his life. He survived the holocaust. His hands were mangled from being too near an explosion in Canada, and through all the hardships he has faced, he still has so much faith in God. When he left, he asked me if I blogged, and I said yes. He reached into his wallet and pulled out a card that said "STOP and Think Ministry. Daniel A. Kolke. www.kolke.com." This card has been sitting in the pocket of my apron for the past two weeks, until I found it a couple days ago. I just went to his blog, and this man is amazing. I invite you all to share in this man's wisdom, and his faith.

Everyday when I go to work, I listen to Kim Walker. When I get there, I sit in my car and I pray that God will use me to bless people that day, even if I never know about it. I really don't enjoy my job, but it's just for the summer, and if God can use me to touch one person, then it will be worth it. Whenever someone askes me for help lifting something because they had surgury, or they have some physical ailment, I pray a silent prayer for them. When a man yelled at me at work, I got upset, but then I prayed for him. God is really working on me to live how I would at Simpson while at home. It's been difficult, but I have grown a lot. And Pastor Kolke was the beginning of my journey,
