Shame

God spoke through this piece of junk.

I was able to preach and from what was heard, was able to present a clear message about our relationship with God.

I have been asked to preach again. This time the topic will shift slightly towards our relationship with other believers.

I pray and hope that I will do fine and not get in the way of His words. I also pray that the end result is that people will open up to each other and involve each other in "one anothers" lives.

I know that Mer and I are really liking this church. In fact Mer is now on staff as an assistant children's director. That should be fun for her. . . it would be so cool to get paid to do something you are both good at and like. A huge goal I have is to find some way for Mer to have more time with our kids and less time with others ... basically stop doing daycare. Because of our foolishness with money, we are in this predicament. But God may be providing a way out of the finance trap we are in.

I have been thinking about being a part of men's ministry at church: I think more specifically, I want to challenge men and leaders. I am not sure if Men's ministry would do that, so I want to pray to see. I don't want to go down a ministry path that He may not want me to go. Not again.

I have also been wanting to finish up some school, but am not sure if we can afford it or have the time for it. I do not want to get bogged down with too many things. Right now, seems pretty balanced.

'till later.
