On her Facebook page recently a friend asked, “Tell us something you have done which no one else in our group has done.” She got the type of responses you might expect: hang gliding, jumping from planes, singing in Carnegie Hall, etc.
That started me thinking about these years of service to the Lord since He called me in 1961. I’m confident I’ve done nothing no one else has, but it may be worthwhile to reflect on some of the almost one-of-a-kind things that have taken place in my ministry. (I’ve not ever done this kind of reflection before, so we’ll see how it goes. Smiley-face here.)
For what it’s worth, here are some that come to mind…
I have drawn a comic book for the missionaries in Singapore.
In the mid-1970s, I saw a note in The Commission magazine where they were looking for a cartoonist to draw an evangelistic comic for their work in Singapore. While I mulled it over, the phone rang. My wife said, “Honey, have you seen this? They need a cartoonist in Singapore!”
