Faith &Hope

PERFECT PEACE “You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in you” – Isaiah 26:3 (NKJV)

We strive for peace …

• In our world • In our nation • In our marriage • In our families • In the workplace • In our schools • And within ourselves Jesus is the pathway to peace. He came as the Prince of Peace. He lived in peace and died in peace. We cannot have peace without Him. To have peace with God is to have peace within ourselves.

So … why don’t we stop struggling and start trusting God to flood our minds with His peace?

Filled with His peace, we can face any challenge, any disappointment and any loss.

Peace is more than the absence of war. It is the presence of love. It is being in a right relationship with God and others. It is a cleansed conscience. There is no better way to live.

I invite you to hide this verse (Isaiah 26:3) in your heart today and see what happens.

Prayer: “Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me” – words by Sy Miller and Jill Jackson.

Peace to you and please join us for worship this Sunday in a church where Jesus’ love is lived.

State Farm Agent, Jeremy Weitting pictured here

with T.J. Duckett during the holidays.

An assembly sponsored by State Farm Agent, Jeremy Weitting, will highlight the importance of serving your community. New World Flood is a non-profit organization that empowers youth to flood their communities through giving and service. In order for that to be done, students must realize their own self worth and then understand that “a single raindrop is the beginning of a flood.” New World Flood is based in Lansing Michigan. The organization travels throughout the state to interact with community youth. The hope is to develop a sense of responsiblility for the overall well-being of the youth’s community. The assembly will be held Thursday, May 9.

If you would like more information on New World Flood and their events, visit the website at www.newworldflood.org or Contact State Farm Agent Jeremy Weitting at the State Farm Office in Otsego.

Steve was born August 29, 1941 in Royal Oak to Floyd and Betty (Michael) Kantz. He grew up in Williamsburg, MI. Steve graduated from Michigan State University and Wayne State University Law School. He was an Army veteran of the Vietnam War era. In 1970 he started practicing law in Allegan with Leo Hoffman. In 1973 he opened his own office in a double wide on the point of Jefferson and Lincoln Roads. In his spare time from practicing law, he built the brick building that still stands on that corner. He retired in 2006. Steve truly enjoyed working with people in Otsego, Plainwell and surrounding communities in Allegan county. He called himself a ‘Country Lawyer’. Steve loved power boating on Lake Michigan.

He was a charter member of Deep Harbor Marina. His boat was named The Law Merchant. Steve and Sandy enjoyed many friendships and comraderie at the marina. He was a member of the Allegan County Bar Association during his years of practicing law. Steve ate dinner at the Elks Club on Wednesday nights where he had been a member since the 1970’s.

While a teenager, he became an amateur radio club member with a squawking noise going on late into the night. There’s a ‘Radio Room’ still at home at Lake Doster. Steve joined the Kazooski Ski club in the 1970’s. He and Sandy enjoyed many friendships and trips to Bittersweet, up north, Utah and Nevada. In the last few years, Steve enjoyed playing cards in the Allegan County Bridge Club. Also in the 1970’s, he played tennis at West Hills Athletic club. Steve played championship tennis at Traverse City High School. Other former memberships include Otsego Rotary Club and Otsego Chamber of Commerce. On June 24, 1990 on their boat in the cove at Saugatuck, Steve married Sandra ‘Sandy’ Adams (Anderson) who survives.
