One of the Hard Parts of Ministry

One of the hardest parts of ministry is funerals. As a young minister whom hasn't had a lot of dealings with death its especially hard.

I've never lost a mother, a father, a brother, a sister, a daughter, a son, a close friend. So

in no way can I say "I know how u feel..."

In truth no one can truely know how each other feels. Every one thinks, sees, experiances differently. There for as a minister I must do one thing. Reflect our Lord the Christ. He is the only one who truly knows how people feel.

Ministers sometimes get the mind set that they have to be some sort of superman of ministry. Truth of matter is we are simply to be willing to be open to God's movement. Be sensitive to His voice of wisdom when speaking to His children. Be willing to be a shoulder to cry upon and be the arms for His hugs. Be the carriers of His peace. Be the carriers of His hope.

Not ours...

Welp i have 2 say tonight was pretty fun. For those whom don't know i've been dating Celeste for nearly11 months now. I appreciate her so much. How she's there for me when i need her. how she's always so encouraging. I'm also so impressed with how hard she works to always do the right thing. I know it's hard sometimes for her between work, family, and soon school. But even with all that she still finds a way to be simply amazing.
