True Confessions..... The first thought (part 1)

Another time of true confession.....

When I think upon the different landscapes of ministry that I have taken part of two thoughts come to mind...... First when it is good and people's lives are being changed there is nothing like it.....

There is nothing like watching the Lord orchestrate ministry to HIS people.... I was at a large conference of hundreds of people..... I was lined up with the prayer team and the line for ministry reached further back then anyone could see.....

Then I saw her...

A woman who I had ministered to previously at a class and she was in line ... I watched as she came closer for prayer and as God would have it when it was her time to receive prayer I was open...

Me being open wasn't the big deal .... All the people on that prayer team could have prayed for her but it meant something to her.....

We had connected previously and it was comforting to her to see how God orchestrated the circumstances that out of thirty or so prayer team members and hundreds and hundreds of people God saw fit to show her His order and kindness ....

Those times and times like that when You see God ministering to His people ... People being touched or taught or blessed by God ....

When it is beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Kingdom of Heaven is moving upon the Earth and taking ground.. Those are the times when I'm so glad to be doing that which we do...

I did have a second thought within this though.... Remember in the beginning of this two thoughts came to mind....

Well.... I'm breaking this up into two parts because part two alongside part one is too long ... Even for one of my posts...

One of my Favorite Narnian Quotes...

“One word, Ma’am,” he said, coming back from the fire; limping because of the pain. “One word. All you’ve been saying is quite right, I shouldn’t wonder. I’m a chap who always liked to know the worst and then put the best face I can on it. So I won’t deny any of what you said, even so. Suppose we have only dreamed, or made up, all those things – trees and grass and sun and moon and stars and Aslan himself. Suppose we have. Then all I can say is that, in that case, the made-up things seem a good deal more important than the real ones. Suppose this black pit of a kingdom of yours is the only world. Well, it strikes me as a pretty poor one. And that’s a funny thing, when you come to think of it. We’re just babies making up a game, if you’re right. But four babies playing a game can make a play-world that makes you real world hollow. That’s why I’m going to stand by the play-world. I’m on Aslan’s side even if there isn’t any Narnia. So, thanking you kindly for our supper, if these two gentlemen and the young lady are ready, we’re leaving your court at once and setting out in the dark to spend our lives looking for the Overland.

A Brilliant Quote from Marianne Williamson

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate,

but that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?"

Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world.

There is nothing enlightening about shrinking

so that others won't feel unsure around you.

We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.

It is not just in some of us; it is in every one.

As we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
