i was thinking this morning about how i have a passion for growing the ministry here and reaching more students on the ucm campus and about how i tend to feel like in order for that to happen that we have to have more staff.
the realization that i have been coming too is that growing must happen on God's terms and not on my own terms. i have been working myself at such a high stress level and intensity level that i have not really even been enjoying what i have been doing, or at least nearly as much as i should be enjoying it. God is so good and His love is so amazing...and to stop enjoying this life seems like one of the greatest tragedies imaginable.
i feel like there is an importance that we take the ministry (whatever it might be for us individually) that God puts in front of us very seriously, but i also think that it is very easy for us to get to the point where we take it too seriously, and i feel like that is where i have been hanging out for a while now. i want to focus on relaxing more, stressing less, and letting God do His thing. that is the best possible thing that can happen, and i want to simply celebrate that as i live life!
