It's funny to be back in the grind of things. I spent the last 7 years of my life pastoring a church and going through all that it takes to run it. But on top of that preparing messages every week. Week in and week out. Without so much as a thank you from anyone. That's not why I do what I do but it would be nice once in a while.
Anyway this week I'm feeling the pinch again. I must prepare messages because Sunday is coming quick. But this time I am wicked excited about it. I am excited to see new faces. I am excited to see people's lives changed for God's glory. I am excited to be doing a new work for God. I have a lot on my plate right now but I am completely cool with it. I know that this is exactly where God wants me and I am feeling more fulfilled in ministry than ever. Even some of the frustrating things that come with dealing with people are not all that bad.
Some cool things about last week I want to share. We had at least 5 people rededicate their lives back to Christ. I believe we had a couple of salvations. People were excited about what we are doing and I hope they come back this week. It was great to see my family and friends come out to support us but it was even better to see all the new faces of people who want to connect with God in a new way. That is exciting for me.
So as I sit in my office and get the busy work done, I know that it is for a purpose and that purpose is to create a place where people can come and be themselves and have a life changing experience with God.
