Honoring ancestors

IMG_3192x

One of the questions that arose during seminary was how to honor your ancestors. Some cultures pray to them, others worship them, others look to them for wisdom. Now that my father has gone to be with the Lord, the question has become very real for me. I found my answer in two perspectives: 1) remembering my father's life; and 2) following his example. To remember his life, I started a web page: www.garydgordon.com and hope to compile memories of my own, and well as memories of others. Plus photos,etc. To follow his example, I continue to read many of his writings to learn more about his thinking, and I continue to remember the times when we lived together at Oak Manor and how his service and words impacted my life. His will be a hard act to follow. Hebrews 12:1
