Billy Graham

Billy Graham died today, he was 99.

I remember watching on TV his crusades as a child and then later as a teenager. I watched them with my Gramma and [Great] Aunt Mary. I was captivated by his clear, forceful and resolute preaching. Here was a man boldly proclaiming our need for a Savior and that He is the Lord Jesus Christ! Thank you, Lord, for raising up Billy Graham to proclaim your Gospel to the world! Well done, good and faithful servant.

“Someday you will read or hear that Billy Graham is dead,” Graham once wrote. “Don’t you believe a word of it. I shall be more alive than I am now. I will just have changed my address. I will have gone into the presence of God.”
