Making some needed changes
Well, what an amazing week it has been. Had some hard feelings to deal with as I was slowly releasing myself from some ministries dear to my heart. I had to make the decision to leave life group ministry. Realistically looking at a 7 day week, being a wife, a fulltime mother of three with two now homeschooled, and two nights a week on campus, plus all the Grad work and research I am doing, on top of field trips with Michelle & JD, plus keeping them socialized, and praising my Lord Jesus Christ, I logically narrowed my youth ministry to Wednesdays and Sunday mornings. After the entire week has progressed, my only days left would be Friday night and Saturdays. WOW!!! --2 days and no time for Dave & I to just date. So I needed to take Sunday afternoons to be with him, cuddle, hug, and just be his wife. That of course doesn’t mean I will not be a part of youth anymore but now that I am also becoming a counselor I will spend many days at shelters, agencies, community centers ministering to children and teens there as well. I don’t know if God is calling me to go further, onward and serve him elsewhere. In the meantime, I am back logged with reading, teaching and even cuddle time is over due. I know that God has a new place for me to serve and he will soon keep me very busy. I will do as much as possible to still help with RLF youth even if it’s just planning activities for the kids. I really like taking them places. -Something about me being all frazzled, sweaty and gross smelling after hauling 8 or 9 kids around. Yeah I know. I could use prayer. LOL. I am feeling more and more that God is calling me to move forward with my ministry. I have a great passion for serving. I do know that. I would like for God to really call me into an area of great need. I’m ready for that ministry.
