Someone Else
Our church was saddened to learn this week of the death of one of
our most valued members, Someone Else. Someone's passing creates a
vacancy that will be difficult to fill. Else has been with us for
many years and for every one of those years, Someone did far more
than a normal person's share of the work.
Whenever there was a job to do, a class to teach, or a meeting to
attend, one name was on everyone's list, "Let Someone Else do it."
Whenever leadership was mentioned, this wonderful person was looked
to for inspiration as well as results; "Someone Else can work with
that group." It was common knowledge that Someone Else was among
the most liberal givers in our church. Whenever there was a
financial need, everyone just assumed Someone Else would make up
the difference.
Someone Else was a wonderful person; sometimes appearing
superhuman. Were the truth known, everybody expected too much of
Someone Else. Now Someone Else is gone! We wonder what we are going
to do.
Someone Else left a wonderful example to follow, but who is going
to follow it? Who is going to do the things Someone Else did? When
you are asked to help this year, remember - we can't depend on
"Someone Else" anymore.
