Today Mark would have been 42. As many of you know, he went home to be with the Lord last August. He was a fireball of controversy at times. He was a modern John Calvin/Martin Luther......

At one time he was an out-doorsman but his illness and horrible pain struck him down at too early an age!

He taught me HTML (not sure what that means) so I could help with his posts.
He found it easier to answer my questions on the phone rather than type them. We exchanged phone numbers when my computer crashed.
He had a sense of humor that was unusual. In a PM I told him I just came over to borrow a cup of sugar but would settle for the John Whitfield quote. He said "What John Whitfield quote." Huh? The one that he had just posted the day before. Then he wanted to know "Why was I on the computer and not out climbing a mountain or something." That was a very good question.

In spite of his limitations he made a difference in the lives of many. I was trying to find something from his website to post and I found this quote.

Lead me to the cross
(A Puritan Prayer)

O Holy Spirit,
Have mercy on me. Move, I beg You, upon my
disordered heart. Take away the infirmities of
unruly desires and hateful lusts. Lift the mists
and darkness of unbelief. Brighten my soul with
the pure light of truth. Make my soul . . .
as fragrant as the garden of paradise,
rich with every goodly fruit,
beautiful with heavenly grace,
radiant with rays of divine light.

Be my comforter, light, guide, sanctifier.

Take of the things of Christ and show them
to my soul. Teach me more of His . . .
love,
grace,
compassion,
faithfulness,
beauty.

Lead me to the cross and show me . . .
His wounds,
the hateful nature of sin,
the power of Satan.

May I there see my sins as . . .
the nails which transfixed Him,
the cords which bound Him,
the thorns which tore Him,
the sword which pierced Him.

Help me to see in His death, the reality
and immensity of His love. Increase my
faith in the clear knowledge of . . .
atonement achieved,
expiation completed,
satisfaction for sin made,
guilt done away.

Mark loved the Lord. He loved Him with all of his heart!

See you again one day my friend!
