Thanks Ken!

Last week Steve Jobs died because of cancer. He touched people all over the world. Newspapers, blogs, Twitter, Facebook and any other social media you can think of was abuzz. They all hailed him as a great innovator, as an amazing inventor. Really. I read one guy's FB post comparing him to Albert Einstein. I think there are a lot of people who idolized him.
No disrespect intended but he wasn't the only person who died.

Today I found out a great man died. Ken Jones.
There wont be all the news headlines. There should.
Twitter and Facebook won't be abuzz. They should.
People all over the world will never know who Ken was or what he meant to a bunch of kids on the San Carlos Apache Reservation. They should.
You see Ken was on the Board of Directors for Arizona Reservation Ministries. He also volunteered his time on the Rez. He also loved the Apache people. He made a difference for the kids on the Rez. He made a difference for the adults on the Rez. But most importantly, He made a difference for the Kingdom!
No, you won't see or hear CNN or Fox News or any other news organization speak of Ken Jones. They won't broadcast a picture showing him surrounded by a bunch of kids.
This world lost a wonderful man, a kind man, an inspiration.
Right now Ken is walking with the Lord. There is no more pain.
I know when he stood before the Lord, He said to Ken, "Well done my good and faithful servant."
By the way, that is better than any news article/story/post from anyone.
I will miss Ken Jones, but I will see him again.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.
Please pray for his wife Frances.

In Him,
Robert
