Sermon of Love
The Methodist priest gazed out from the pulpit. Sitting in
the audience sat two young ladies, in not so modest clothes, chatting back and
forth, and being generally disrespectful. They giggled openly. The people
around them looked uncomfortable and were paying more attention to the girls
than they were the sermon.
The priest hesitated for a moment, looked up from his notes,
and began to tell a story. “I would like for all of you to meet my daughter,
Kari and her make-up artist, Joey. It has been learned recently that Kari…” he
stopped his story and thought about whether he should continue. Kari stared at
him in disbelief. He cleared his throat, “Kari was conceived under less than
admirable conditions,” he stopped to catch his breath. “We adopted her minutes
after she was born… t-the g-greatest d-day of my life,” he slowed to wipe the
tear that trickled from his eye. “She is angry that we never told her…”
“How do you tell someone that an event driven by hate…,” he
wiped more tears, “led to the greatest day of my life? Your mother and I love
you! We never told you, not because we were ashamed, but because there was no
need to make you hurt for something you had no control over. Just like in my
sermon… There are many times in life that we ask, ‘why did I have to experience
such pain?’ And we have no answer, but if we love enough the good, reward, or
happiness will show itself.”
Kari ran up to the altar and her father’s waiting arms.
