Welcome

Thanks for stopping by. This journal is meant as a way for me to work out my calling as a Pastor. Things doing always go as we think they will, but as long as we're on the journey with God, we're on the right path.

I'll post personal updates, teachings, thoughts and just what ever strikes my fancy.

Cannot Hold It In.

Jeremiah 20:9
But if I say, "I will not mention him
or speak any more in his name,"
his word is in my heart like a fire,
a fire shut up in my bones.
I am weary of holding it in;
indeed, I cannot

This is how I've been feeling lately. This need to preach, to speak the Word of God. A need to see others see how Jesus loves them and want to work in them more than they possibly imagined. That God can be believed and trusted.

I'm feeling a deep need to pastor. This is more than just wanting a job, or to know God's place for me. It's almost biological, physical.

I know I'm weird, but this is how God's made me. And remaking me.

Its funny how you can read a passage several times over and yet not really pull it out and look at it like that. I know I've read that passage at least a few times and until you pulled it out right there I don't think I gave it that much thought.

Its really great that you're feeling that. You know your place. You hunger for your calling. It doesn't get any better than that.
