A MOTHER’S LEGACY
Dr. James E. “Gene” Priest was a beloved preacher and teacher of God’s Holy Word – a Bible scholar in the truest sense of the word. Prior to his death, he donated all his books, notes, sermons, and other writings to StudyJesus.com. We discovered a small notebook of drawings by the mother of his life-long friend, Dr. William Harrison. Also in that notebook was a personal letter from Harrison addressed to Dr. Priest. Here is a part of that letter: “Before mother died and while serving the Lord on foreign soil, she wrote several letters of encouragement. Sometimes she would include within her letter a poem or drawing – always relating to God’s Word. As you know, mother and dad were not rich by the world’s standard, but they both left a loving and spiritual legacy. This small collection of mother’s drawings represents a portion of her legacy and it’s dedicated to you primarily because mother and dad greatly loved and deeply respected you for taking me, as a youngster, into your heart and spending countless hours instilling within me the knowledge of how and the desire to study the Holy Word of God.”
We at StudyJesus.com hope that one preacher, teacher and/or student of God’s Holy Word may find a use for one or more of these drawings and be encouraged in Christ. Perhaps this mother’s legacy can be a part of your legacy, too.
