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.

Don't Quit Your Day Job.

My full-time job may be coming to an end. My boss told me very plainly that I had 30 days to get my numbers up. As he put it, 'my future here looks bleak.'

Now the idea of being without a full-time job scares me to death. I am our primary bread winner. Going on just my wife's salary would be near impossible for us right now. However, I'm not that bothered by not working here anymore. As I've said, my heart is just not here. So I do try and work hard, but it just doesn't excite me.

So now I'm full of questions. Is it possible that God is closing the door here? Could there be a greater work He is preparing? Do I need to just live on faith that God will provide what we need?

The sermon this weekend was on Abraham, in that he had to 'Go' then God would 'Show.' That rang with both Amanda and I. Is it time to leave this job on faith and let God show me what His plans are?

My fear is that might just be my own desires and not God's.

How can you tell?
