JEANNETTE Langmaack -- PROVERBS 31 Lady

Jeannette Langmaack...December 11, 1936 -- May 21, 2010.

Our sister in CHRIST, Jeannette, has graduated upwards -- where like Martha's sister, Mary -- she may even now be sitting at the LORD's feet, thoroughly enjoying His company.

Behind Pastor Baize is 1 John 4:16, "GOD is love, and he who abides in love abides in GOD, and GOD in Him." Jeannette certainly abided in CHRIST and the Holy SPIRIT powerfully abided in her. The love of GOD flowed through her and bore good fruit in all the loving deeds He accomplished richly through her humble willingness. Jeannette's joy and love for JESUS touched everyone, including myself. Jeannette's abundant life bore much good fruit!

Jeannette was not just a ship passing in the night...she was a sailboat with sails fully unfurled to all of life, taking in many wanderers from all walks of life, nourishing their bodies and souls with bread from her kitchen and the True Bread from above.

PROVERBS 31 Woman...Jeannette is!

10 A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.
11 Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value.
12 She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.
13 She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.
14 She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar.
15 She gets up while it is still dark; she provides food for her family and portions for her servant girls.
16 She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17 She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.
18 She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night.
19 In her hand she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
20 She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy.
21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
22 She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple.
23 Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.
25 She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.
26 She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
27 She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:
29 "Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all."
30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.


31 Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.

Thank you, Father in Heaven, for gifting us with Jeannette -- for giving us richness of grace through her loving, joyful, GODly presence in our lives.

  5. Jeanette and Tiny are wonderful people. they are some of the first that i became close with when i first attended "Midway" around 30 years ago. we shared fun times working in the Servicemen Center together. She was a 2nd mom for lots of people. Always a joy to be around, will be missed but another angel is in heaven
