Diane will tell you that I love it when I have a full schedule of ministry to do. I will admit that now and then I tend to get a bit overwhelmed by not having enough time to do all that I think that I need to do. Most of the time I can remind myself that God has everything in His plan in His time.
On that note, I need a few extra prayers for stamina over the next week or so. Because it is that time of the Methodist year, I have multiple meetings scheduled over the next 10 days. That means that I have multiple reports to fill out. It's our UMC connectional way of doing things. I have the awesome honor of preaching for the fine folks at New Hope Friends Church on Tuesday (October 9). I really am looking forward to that. I get to give my personal insight on my cancer journey as I have seen God through all of this. Wednesday is our Xtreme group. Thursday is our Beacons men's gathering. Beginning on Friday we have a full weekend of activities scheduled for our Garris Chapel Homecoming celebration October 12, 13, 14. Friday night is a night of worship with our Worship Team. Saturday is our fourth annual Run for Christ 5K. Sunday is a full day of worship, food and fellowship on Homecoming Sunday. As I have said, a little extra prayer for me would be good.
One last thing. I am sure that you watched the debates this past week - or not. If you are still struggling over whom you should vote for, or what issues are important, continue to pray about that. We are at a crossroads in our country, I believe. But remember this one thing. I have read the back of the book (the Bible) and we win! It's all about Him!
