Today began at 6.50am with a meeting for prayer with one of the men from the church. As I didn't finish my elders' meeting until after 11pm yesterday (my day incidentally having also begun at 6.30am praying in Crewe for an hour with another local pastor), I was feeling a little limp. After seeing a couple of folk and then coming to the study to engage in ministry prep, by mid afternoon I had decided that I needed a break.
You know, sitting out here on the fire escape with a cup of coffee, hearing the birds, feeling the sun on my face and listening to Al Mohler preaching from Deuteronomy made me realise something:
However tiring or demanding our respective ministries or spheres of service may be, there are SO many blessings in God's world. I just thought I would share my view with you as I snatch a break.
Thanks for listening...
