Introduction to Love Poems for Dodie
ОглавлениеBy Pastor Kara’ Lynne Brubaker
My husband, Jay, and I are pastors of Positive Impact Worldwide Ministries in Saint Petersburg, FL where we had the wonderful privilege of being pastors for Joe and Dodie. Our first meeting with Dodie was in a little chapel where we were teaching a Sunday night service. Dodie and her sister were regular attendees. The three of us ladies decided to go for prayer in a beautiful prayer room a few miles away. That is where Dodie met Joe.
Dodie was one of the most beautiful women on the inside and out that you could ever have had the great honor to meet. She loved the Lord with all of her heart. Dodie, like most of us, had her ups and downs in life but when she gave her heart to the Lord, she was sold out. I have never seen anyone more pure, kind and trusting than Dodie.
When she met Joe she was sure that he, too, loved the Lord the way she did. I will never forget the gleam in Dodie's eyes as she spoke of the tall, good-looking Christian man she had met at the prayer room. Joe, too, was smitten with her beauty and love for the Lord.
It was love at first sight for the two of them. They started building stories together about all that God was showing them and how their interests were so similar for God and each other. When they came to us asking if we would perform their wedding ceremony we were not surprised. We were honored to have such a happy Christian man and woman join their lives together.
I think you will find Joe's book an interesting account of their love for one another.
