I have been thinking a lot today about what God wants from me. Granted, He doesn’t “need” anything from me. Often I get overwhelmed with little things and forget the calling that has been placed on my life.
I’ve been feeling God leading me to start a ministry myself. I am not sure of the context that it will eventually take, but the initial idea is based off a book by Brennan Manning called “A Ragamuffin Gospel” I am still laying out the foundation of what this ministry will look like and part of it will be dependent on those God leads my way. Over the last seven months, I feel I have been spinning my wheels trying to make things work out on my own and applying for jobs all over the country. None of those things have worked out and I haven’t been offered a position anywhere around here, but I still feel the call to full-time ministry.
I can only do what God has asked of me. Everything else will fail in the sight of God. I may succeed in the eyes of men, but ultimately they aren’t the ones I answer to.
This has been a decision a long time in the making. I’ve prayed and thought about this for several years now. There was once a time I thought it would fit under the umbrella of another ministry. It can’t be put off any longer now. Keep us in prayer.









if you haven’t already read “The Keys of the Kingdom”
and “The Left Hand of God”
you should start there…
This problem of meeting a culture with truth from God is the most difficult kind of thing. One comes as a renovator, a conditioner of society, and society is in no mood to be conditioned.
