What
an awesome and uplifting memorial service for Pastor Natalie Choate last
night! As we all stood and sang praises to God, I gazed across the
sanctuary and saw the most beautiful sight - the congregation with hands
raised and voices united worshiping God. What a victory your life has
brought God and us!! Pastor Natalie, I did not have the pleasure of
knowing you while you were here on earth but
I feel that I know you now. As Pastor Kevin mentioned, your name means
"a gift from God." I have been praying for about 2 months for everyone I
know & everyone they know to be motivated in life and faith.
Through your life and legacy, we have been inspired and motivated to
fight the good fight, to not give up, and to fully lead the lives God
has for us. God has answered my prayer through YOU! Just as Pastor Kevin
said, I thought I was strong in my faith and I thought I trusted God
fully but through you Pastor Natalie, God has opened my eyes to what
that means and how much more trust and faith I must and can have.
Through you, God has strengthened me, reminded me of my purpose, and
given me a deeper courage to be the woman He has called me to be no
matter the depths, pains, struggles, or outcomes I will face and have -
to keep pressing on and knowing that God has my best interest at heart
and He sees the big picture always. You have inspired me and blessed me
Pastors Natalie & Kevin Choate! Love you both! We stand with you arm and arm, heart and heart! — Covenant Church
