Hey All,
I hope your doing well! We are excited as we have been on deputation now for two months. I have still been working throughout the weeks until we get enough support for fulltime ministry. God has opened several doors and opportunities to serve just in the few weeks after leaving the military and He has met our needs, amen.
We are visiting churches, meeting pastors and sharing our ministry and hearts with others as God allows. Tomorrow I get the opportunity to share/preach. So I ask for your prayers that God can use me to reach others.
As I thought about what to post, I thought of my week. I know life seems so busy for all of us, we have so many distractions, appointments and things going on, its hard to slow down. I was thinking about what a pastor once told me, "feed often & feed early because you cant feed others from an empty basket." As i was reading Matthew 6:34, i was reminded "Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof." I know God cares and he will provide, I trust him.
I have had days where I plan things and have expectations of how the day should go, and many times doesnt work the way I planned at all. I sit back listen to the holy spirit who reminds me to take ME out of the equation. Then im left with the thought, What did i do for God today? I can look through my Christian walk and see how God has, blessed, held, lifted, protected and intervened and put the right people in my life at the right times helping me grow, so I know he cares. I have to remind myself, "not my will but your will be done." Im just glad to beable to be used by God and watch him work in myself and others.
So I leave you with these questions, are you feeding often and early? Are you trusting his plan (even if its not your own)? And what have you done to share him with others today?
