a preacher’s confession
I have to confess.
My imperfections as a preacher………. a calling , a joy and a passion I have pursued for over twenty five years.
The Holy Spirit is such a patient trainer: guiding , gently approving and reproving. You just know it when you got it right and did well, or wrong and said some stupid thing…even after you prayed for your words and meditation to be acceptable to Him.
The joy is when you know the preaching helped people; the pain is when you realize the same privelege of influence also works in the negative.
This morning I reflected on a gospel passage about Jesus again.
I want to be like You Lord. Everywhere you went You inspired faith and hope and love.
People were always glad You had been around.
