"Delight yourself in the Lord"
"Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart!" Ps. 37:4
It's funny how God answers our prayers sometimes when we're just oblivious to His moving. Each winter, it seems, Gail and I go through all of the questions of "are we still where God wants us?" and questions of whether we should still be on the road. A couple of months ago, we really felt that there were a few things that have yet to take place in the original vision of Whole In One Ministries. Two of those things were an intentional encouragement of pastors and supporting various church ministries in a consulting capacity. While we've made it a matter of prayer, we've continued on sharing the Gospel through music and drama as we have always done.
Over the past several weeks, we've spent long meals after services encouraging pastors and their families, listening to their hearts, and ministering to them. Though many of you who read this blog do not necessarily understand the life of a pastor or pastor's family, it is not always as glorious you might think. I could insert antedotal stories of the "glorious" life, but I'll spare you. To you, I say, send a card, pray, love on your pastors and their families!!
Not only have we seen God open opportunities to love on pastors, we've had numerous opportunities to coach and consult for several churches. From sound issues to worship teams to drama teams to consultation on a future building project, God has opened these doors and allowed us to deposit into the lives and ministries of others. Whole In One from the very start has been dedicated to building others up and giving away all of our secrets!!
You name it...Video Projectors to business cards...We've let all the secrets out of the bag!! (Now all I have to do is figure out how to get these companies to support us!!)
It is true...when you delight yourself in the Lord, He WILL give you the desires of your heart! We look forward to fruitful ministry on the road as long as God desires!! Thanks for all of your love and support. Blessings!
