Peace
Pastor Kase Kuykendall In 1955 the minimum wage was seventy five cents an hour. That is the year I turned 14 and began working at a dime store after school. Being a student, they only paid me thirty cents an hour. Since I paid for all my clothes and other expenses, except for the food I ate at home and a roof over my head, the thirty cents didn't go far. That summer when East Side Baptist Church in Killeen,Texas payed my way to go to summer camp, it was a blessing. In one of my classes, my youth leader's wife shared a Bible verse that meant a lot to her. "And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God and to those who are called according to his purpose." (Romans 8:28, NKJV) Because the conflict and violence in my home didn't make sense to me, the verse became my special lifeline. With the reality of COVID-19, we all need hope, peace, and comfort.
