“CLOSE TO THE HEART OF GOD” By Rev. Dan Minor
- revdminor1945@gmail.com _____________________________________
“Now when he saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, and he began to teach them, saying …” (Matthew 5:1)
Is there a difference between being happy and being blessed? The word “happiness” comes from the word “hap” which literally means: chance. As we all know, human happiness can turn to disappointment and sorrow at any time. Jesus uses a much stronger word: “Blessed.” The word literally means “An inner joy that is untouchable by the world.”
As always, Jesus goes counterculture; that is He reverses human norms of behavior by giving us a deeper meaning of kingdom values. This is basic Christianity. We call them the Beatitudes (“Supreme blessedness”). They are listed in Matthew 5:1-12.
When a Jewish Rabbi was teaching in some official capacity, he always sat down to teach. Thus, Jesus sat down to teach His disciples some central truths of His kingdom. Jesus was building on the Covenant (promise) God made to Abraham. God said to Abraham, “I will make you into a great nation and you will be a blessing … all the peoples on earth will be blessed through you” (Genesis 12:1-3).
Another definition of the word blessedness is “Close to the heart of God.” With this in mind, let us take a closer look and summarize the Beatitudes as follows:
Verse 3 “Poor in Spirit” - “Close to the heart of God are those who humble themselves before God.”
Verse 4 – “Those who mourn” – “Close to the heart of God are those whose hearts are broken.”
Verse 5 – “The Meek” – “Close to the heart of God are those who are self-controlled.”
Verse 6 – “Those who hunger and thirst after righteousness” – “Close to the heart of God are those who have a desire for God.”
Verse 7 - “The Merciful” – “Close to the heart of God are those who are quick to forgive.”
Verse 8 – “The pure in heart” – “Close to the heart of God are those whose motives are pure.”
Verse 9 - “The peacemakers” – “Close to the heart of God are those who desire peace with God and others.”
Verses 10-12 – “Those who are persecuted for righteousness sake” – “Close to the heart of God are those who suffer and lose their lives for God.”
Prayer: Dear Lord, this is where we all want to be – close to the heart of God. In Your strong name. Amen.

Mocha
ADOPTABLE Pets of the Week! is an energetic pup who LOVES her toys! One of her favorite toys is a Kong Wubba. She is very playful and a happy girl. Mocha would love a fun forever home that will keep her mind and body active. Mocha is a sweet girl, but she can jump up looking for affection; with some training and patience she will become a wonderful family dog. It is recommended that any children in her home are 10 years old and up, however, homes with younger dog savvy children could also be a good fit. At this time, it might be best if Mocha was the only pet in her home. However, with some training and slow introductions to medium to large playful dogs, she may be able to have a doggy sibling. If you already have a dog in the home, please ask for a meet and greet to be set up at the shelter to see if the dogs are a good match. Mocha will need a cat-free home. Mocha is 2 years old and weighs 48 pounds. If you would like to meet Mocha please fill out an adoption application at wishbonepetrescue.org The Allegan County Animal Shelter is managed by Wishbone Pet Rescue.

Dorla Jean WOODWARD AGE 90 - OTSEGO, MI Watson Township
On December 24, 2021, at the home of her beloved daughter, Glenda, Dorla Jean Woodward passed peacefully from this world. On January 24, 1930, the world welcomed Dorla Jean Larson to life. She was born to Emil and Lilly (Nelson) Larson, little sister to Dale, in Mancelona, MI. Unfortunately Lilly, Dorla's mom, passed away when Dorla was a toddler. Father Emil had sisters and sisters-in-law in Kansas and Nebraska who Dorla lived with for a period of time in her youth. Young Dorla learned farm life and how to take care of family. She was also lucky enough to spend time in her beloved Mancelona. Dorla enjoyed being a kid, sledding, skating and following her brother everywhere. When she was a teenager, the family moved to Otsego, MI. Jean, as she would be called, made a life in Otsego but would always call Mancelona home. In Otsego, Dorla would meet and start a family with Rex D. Woodward (deceased). Rex brought to the family three children from a previous marriage, Sue (Ken) Keene, Patti (Tom) Rolfe and Mike (Nancy) Woodward. Rex would adopt Jean's daughter, Toni. The Woodward clan would later welcome Robin R. Woodward and the baby, Glenda (Dick) Guerrant. Jean was a true woman of the greatest generation. She could do anything she set her mind to do. The family would foster babies awaiting adoption. Jean went to beauty school and worked in downtown Kalamazoo as a hairdresser for years. She would also work as a cook at the local hospital. Rex and Jean would eventually move to the farm in Watson Township. Jean was an excellent cook, seamstress, bowler, horseshoe enthusiast and horse- woman. She especially loved gardening. Jean was a selftaught master gardener who could grow anything anywhere! Flowers were her passion. As the children grew, the grandchildren would arrive. Jean's other passion was being a grandma. There were always children at the farm. Jean always had something up her sleeve for the grandkids to do from tomato fights to Easter egg hunts. She and Rex became a part of the Martins Lions Club, mowing local cemetery grounds, working the weekly bingo night and hosting many, many pool parties. Jean made the farm a magical place for everyone. She naturally knew how to make everyone feel loved, accepted and special. She was the epitome of a pillar of a family: loving, strong, wise and fun. The grandchildren would playfully bicker about who was her favorite. She would always smile and say they all were. As time went by, the great-grandchildren started to arrive. At the end of the last century, Rex would be called home. The new millennium would bring about a new love, Jack Witt. They would spend 21 years together building memories and laughter. Jean would come to love and be loved by Jack's children. She would become grandma and "Papa Jean" to Jack's grandchildren. Jean and Jack had lovely twilight years together. They enjoyed eating breakfast out, going on day trips or tinkering at home - Jack in the garage and Jane in her beautiful, peaceful flower gardens. Jean Woodward will forever be missed by her loving family. She was mom and grandma to all. She taught all how to love and respect all creatures, great and small. She loved all her children whether biological or bonus. Jean was one of a kind. She leaves a legacy of love, kindness, wisdom and lots and lots of grandchildren and flowers. Preceding her in death is Rex (husband), Toni (daughter), Robin (son), Sue (daughter), Mike (son), Dale Larson (brother) and Ron Larson (nephew). Mourning her passing are her children: Patti (Tom) Rolfe, Nancy Holmes and Glenda (Dick) Guerrant. Bonus children: Leann Ciecilski, Damon (Lynn) Witt, Alex (Liz) Witt, Marcella (Cliff) Jenkins. Adoring grandchildren: Wendy (Mike) Chamberlin, John (Jeannie) Handelsman, Anne (Tom) Alyward, Aimee (Dean) Kolstead, John Thomasma, Cheryl (Jeff) Mocslein, Karen (Al) Bowling, Kimmy Keene, Tami (Bob) Curry, Jay Woodward, Jeff Holmes, Traci (Rick) Walker, Laura Guerrant, Lisa Alli, Pete (Suzanne) Augusine, John (Lisa) Augustine, Nikki Woodward, Michele Woodward, Emily Guerrant, Rich (Sara) Guerrant, Mike (Rinda) Guerrant, Lori Larson and Roger Larson. Bonus grandchildren: Aimee (Brad) Harrington, Dillon Witt, Alicia (Mark) Lee, Kendra (Justin) Gregory, Zena Enos, Trinity Enos, Aven Witt and Addison Witt. Great-grandchildren a-plenty! Great-great-grandchildren the number is growing daily! Contributions may be made to Wings of Hope Hospice. Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, January 23, 2022 at Emerald Park, 318 Cross Oaks Dr., Plainwell, MI from 2-5pm
