I couldn't imagine doing anything else...were the words that came out of Joel's mouth yesterday as we drove home from a wonderful evening at Waypoint. This is where God wants us right now and Joel is so excited to be learning something new everyday. There were two guys who graduated the 1 year program, and two who graduated the Servant And Leadership class yesterday afternoon. We have two new guys in the program as of today. The ministry continues here as it does where each of you are, work, school, church or at home. Just like I have learned about tithing, "It's all God's money, no matter how much I actually give, it is all His." The people around us, our family, our jobs, our "ministry", it is all His, no matter where He has us serving. We just happen to be here at Waypoint for a season, seeing God do some huge things. We have not closed off the rest the world though. We are still apart of our church in Commerce, still open to meeting one on one with people who are not ready to go to a recovery program, and still wanting to be in relationship with the youth at our church.
Joel's words were a blessing to hear. No wife wants her husband to feel useless or without purpose. When your husband is following after God's will for his job, family and life why not jump on board. So here we are working with other men and families to show them that they too have a purpose, and will be blessed to be part of God's plan. So we are praying today that the men here and you there, know that you are were you are supposed to be. Whether selling insurance, teaching school, preaching, or cleaning the house, may you know that God has you right were He wants you.
Praise God for His guidance, "And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a large number who believed turned to the Lord." Acts 11:21
