tonight, i was reflecting on commitment, on sticking with what we’ve been given.

i’ve decided on this: to stick with being a pastor until God says something else. that’s my resolve. now i’m sure drama will ensue and all my introverted perfectionistic ways will be challenged. and then i’ll run away in my mind and wish i could return to a job i could only stomach for one week back in the summer of 2002. i made pins. it was like a sweat shop. i’m sure something about it was illegal. all the windows were covered. 

no. no running away. my mind’s made up. no turning back. now to finish prep for a brand new day. i will not be consumed by uncertainty. tomorrow’s got brand new mercies. i’m thankful for the chance to be part of that action.
