The great reversal is not only the Lord’s unseating of the mighty and raising the humble; it is also our own repentance. — John Howard Yoder

On the Death of Lee Eshleman

God, lover of souls,
you hold dear what you have made
and spare all things, for they are yours.
Look gently on your servant Lee,
and by the blood of the cross
forgive his sins and failings.

Remember the faith of those who mourn
and satisfy their longing for thtat day
when all will be made new again
in Christ, our risen Lord,
who lives and reigns with you for ever and ever.

Amen.
