I've been workin on speakin more word, and memorizing more word and I'm noticing that I have a lot to learn about initiative. Last weeks sermons at church were awsome, and I've been trying to make a point of being at church whenever there's something to be there for. I tend to try and stay quiet 'cause I have a lot more to learn than I do to speak.
This may be part of my Children should be heard and not seen mentality that I was raised with. We did have a situation that I could have been more helpful with at church though. They got the church bus up and running, which is a good thing I'm not much of a mechanic, but I did spend 10 years putting wheelchair lifts in Vans and working with various types of power wheelchairs. The wheelchair lift on the bus wasn't working.
I just feel I could have done a better job of asserting myself and letting the guys who were working on this that I had experience with it. I some times find that walking the christian walk is like so many other things. Like playing guitar, I could play lots of things right but if I make one mistake that's what I'll choose to focus on.
I've been actively seeking numbers of other Christian men in my community, and I'm very excited about the Men's fraturnity at my home Church. All of this brings me back to the original point. If I don't open up my fellow believers will never know if I'm about to walk off the beam as it were.
I think it's time for me to quit being a "closet christian" I work in an addictions house, full of guys who are looking for solutions, For broken families, who are looking for a God that's loving, and caring and more powerful than us. Hey I know one of those. He's in the Bible. Hes just waiting for us to turn aside from our own plans and come to him.
Well as usual this BLOG is kind of all over the place but I needed to get some of this off my chest. I hope one and all can remember to enjoy the day the Lord has made. |
