mosses monday XLVII (continued from XLIV)...

he was back nearly to his same old self
but with a new sense of purpose...

which God had bestowed upon him.

mosses never spoke again about his experience with God, but the effect of their encounter was very apparent.   at the age of 90, he put two, new projects into motion. he decided to gift (respectively) both his and mrs. moss' childhood, country churches with endowments for growth.
it was quite apparent mosses wasn't ready to go and that God had answered my prayer
God, if he is ready to go, take him... but if he is not ready to go, please, leave him, and leave him whole!
by granting him a stay, which gave him the opportunity to dig up his proverbial buried talents  and use them.

i don't know that mosses ever saw the fruits of his gift to his, church home. however, the gift he gave to  mrs. moss' church was put to immediate use. 
niagara united methodist church invested mr. moss' endowment in adding a gathering area to their small church. further, they allowed mosses to play a part in all aspects of its erection. ~@~
i hadn't seen him that alive since before mrs. moss  had been diagnosed with alzheimer's.
he was back, and  he was whole!
love and God's blessings, dani xxx
