Well I do not know how to begin, I could fill in the past few months first about my life in ministry here in Frankfort, IN. I choose not to do that because you either 1.) do not really care 2.) you care and already know what's been going on.
I am faced with making a decision between to right things. Basically, I could stay here in Frankfort, stay the course and beat my head against the wall. If I stay I will gain semi-valuable experience that will prepare me well to be the average Wesleyan Senior Pastor. I can continue living on faith, trusting that Jehovah-Jireh will continue blessing my current situations. I could do OK here at the church, grow more gray hairs and be moderately happy in the present and near future.
The other option that I have to choose is to return home, have a good engagement period with Heather and start my M.Div online. This sounds great, but I am scared of finding a job, living with my parents again and feeling like I am going to miss out on something in Frankfort. The positives of this far out weigh the down sides. The downsides can be easily lumped into "the unknown", but the same God that provided a check this week for me can provide support where ever I find myself in the next few weeks, months and well years.
I do know what I am going to do. Heather is ok with it. I am just tired all of the different thoughts and opinions of others, though I do appreciate their concerns. The many voices out there are getting in my way of hearing the One Voice that I need to be seeking.
I guess that when I am about to go through a major change, I Blog. I wish I did it more, but I guess I would just become one of the many voices out there. Please voice your concerns about my overall topic of today to our Lord... I need all of the prayer that I can get.
