Reflection of the Day - 9/21/2008

A recurring thought during the last couple of days:
Ministering unto the Lord . . .
we are accustomed to the Lord
ministering unto us,
but He also wants us to minister unto Him.
from the journal of William W. Goldsmith
December 19, 1978 during his final illness.
He, my mentor, died December 21, 1978 at age 76.

The following are his notes to himself for
studying and reflecting upon those thoughts.
Look up such expressions as,
"While he ministered unto the Lord,"
or
"As he worshipped the Lord."
Psalm 103:1 - "Bless the Lord, O my soul . . ."
How can we bless the Lord when He is the source of all blessing?
Did Jesus minister unto the Father in prayer?
-- perhaps as we find in John 17.
A number of expressions there would give some clue to this.
