Tradition says that Lawrence was bound to a grill and placed over a fire. Yet, even in the face of death, he kept his sense of humor. As Satan gleefully lashed out against Christ’s Church, Lawrence did not love his life more than His Lord. He “hated” this life, anticipating the joy to come. “Turn me over, I’m done on this side!” he joked. And just before he died he declared, “It’s cooked enough now.” (Higher Things Reflections - August 10, 2006)

"Come, Holy Ghost, God and Lord! Be all Thy graces now out poured On each believer's mind and heart; Thy fervent love to them impart. Lord, by the brightness of Thy light, Thou in the faith dost men unite Of every land and every tongue; This to Thy praise, O Lord, our God, be sung. Hallelujah! Hallelujah!" (TLH 224, 1)

"Thou holy Fire, Comfort true, Grant us the will Thy work to do And in Thy service to abide; Let trials turn us not aside. Lord, by Thy power prepare each heart And to our weakness strength impart That bravely here we may contend, Through life and death to Thee, our Lord, ascend. Hallelujah! Hallelujah!" (TLH 224, 3)
In Christ Jesus,
Rev. George F. Borghardt III
