more than anything else this year I gained a feeling of belonging. Belonging to a people. Belonging to God and his purpose. Belonging to a vision. A vision for a future and the part God wants us to play in it.
I have felt again the love of the church family. I have seen the impact that we can have on those near and abroad.
I have gained again the confidence that is based on the firm foundation of the apostles and prophets. A confidence to build.
Once again I feel that I have a part to play, a calling, a purpose.
Many thanks to Andrew Hughes and his plain speaking. Will I hide in the baggage like Saul. (The baggage made out of all those reasons-why) or will I give my baggage to the baggage handler as David did before heading for the front line.
Many thanks to our brother -and father in the faith- Keri; who through integrity, an open hand and his uncompromising obedience to our God seals himself as a master builder in my heart.
Many thanks to our dear Lord who knows me through and through. And still chose me to be one of his!
