JOHN WESLEY MOMENTS
DAVE HANSON

 
John Wesley Mellows
 
John Wesley was once criticized because he thought he was always right.  His reply was, “Of course I believe that I am right. If I didn’t think I was right I would change my opinion.” Many thought he was stubborn and autocratic.
 
Later in life he began to mellow. In 1765, at the age of 62, he wrote, “When I was young I was sure of everything. In a few years, having been mistaken a thousand times, I was not half as sure of most things as I was before: at present I am hardly sure of anything but what God has revealed to man.” 

Thank God we can all grow in grace and kindness.
 
The Rev. Dave Hanson is a retired pastor and John Wesley scholar.
