From the Heart of Pastor Jacqueline A. Thompson
November 5, 2020
Dear Allen Temple Family and Friends,
Waiting...I hate it. And yes, I know all of the spiritual benefits and virtues that are extolled about it. And I still hate it.
It is a poignant reminder that some things in this life are out of my ultimate control. This necessary, daily realization grates against the very nature of what it means to be human. CONTROL! Was this not the desire that marred the experience of Adam and Eve in the Garden? The struggle for control transcends time and place. And I don't know about you, but it seems as if it has become heightened during this multi-pandemic year called 2020.
