booking in..
after 2 straight days of being with brothers and sisters of the same mind, being rejuvinated of the exciting end goal of ministry, and seeing where things begin to fit,
Is really sian.
God, where do i fit now? Grant us this servant heart, and a passion of Your child knowing His father's will.
Serving in this is exciting. And it is getting even more so.
Time for ego to be thrown out.
Time for insecurities to be crossed.
Time to stop being distant and risk being involved with people :)
2010 has been an enormously impactful year. Things are moving on. And i thank You Lord!
Two books to recommend..
-the true vine by andrew murray.
Still reading. A devotional of john 15. To abide!
-emerging culture by jimmy long.
Haven't read. Haven't got :p
But still recommending! :P haha! Good for leaders, or basically anyone in any ministry with people younger than 30. We need to have great tectonic paradigmic humungous change how we serve cuz of emerging culture.
On 2nd thoughts, not so hard. Cuz we're the emerging culture. Postmodern in cheemer academic terms.
Juz have to forgo certain styles of ministry which is what we are used to.
Esp with ministry involving people. Young people..
Exciting times!
Things are stabilizing..
But yet hor.. Good times and comfort zone times are but training times.. Macham sispec or ocs or some random course people go to go after bmt.
And like life, you realised the training you receive, don't really apply to the real stuff in whatever unit you're in.... Unless of course you're a driver or diver or just damn blur.
Crap. Digressed.
Anyway i was saying.
Good times are training times cuz prolly what comes next is a damn shiong time in life or ministry, and what has been given must be blessed to others, and applied when things screw up in life..
Challenging two days.
Long to see what happens next and what choices happen.
Never been more excited about both ministry and what lies ahead..
Though cost must be paid.
Don't waste your friggin life in the rat race chasing useless qualifications or some high paying but useless job.. Someone wise said that after winning the rat race....
you're still a rat.
