This Week's Lesson: Living Love

Scripture related to the lesson: The Bible

Living A life of love, the way Jesus taught us, when He said: "Love ye one another as I have loved you."

On September 28, 2025, my wife; Joann M Haugabrook, transitioned to her Heavenly home, where she will rest eternally with Jesus Christ. I thought it good to briefly share with you the way she lived her life. Jo, as I called her, loved everyone she met. We were married for fifty years, six month and twenty eight days. And I can truthfully say, I never seen a singer person she met; that she didn't greeted with a warm, heart felt smile and attitude. It didn't matter how the other person responded, she was always friendly and warm. Why? It was in her to live like Jesus told us to live. Her saying; "I can't control how or what other people say or do, but I can control what I say, do and feel. I remember a few times I got hot under the collar because of attitudes of others toward Jo, but she would always pull, or push me away, saying, don't get in trouble over words. Jo was a believer in Love your neighbor as yourself. I can truly say; Jo loved me. She never pushed me into anything, or discouraged me from things I wanted to do. She would say, "If you want it, or believe it will work then I'm with you. I will support you all the way. And she did. She never complained, just worked with me. She was a very, very, very good wife. At one time, when we lived in a neighborhood with a lot of kids, she would buy bags of candy and hand it out to them. She loved kids and they knew it. She helped tutored them, bringing grades up from "Cs" and "Ds" to "As" and "Bs". She was always with me in Schools and School Board meetings speaking for kids and their history. She and I read the bible from Genesis to Revelation twice; plus read scriptures almost daily. Jo knew the Word of God and lived it. Jo was truly a Gem, to me and all that she met. There is so much to be said about Jo's life   but I'll stop here, because it would take days and many pages to tell it all. So now, just pray we can all meet in God's Kingdom and enjoy the beauty that Jo is enjoying. Amen.   

                 Love you all! 

          Thank you for stopping by; by the Grace of God, I'll see you next week.
