Graduation Day

If anyone wants to know what it is like to be a college student in the "prime" of your life (late 40's), then call me! Today was the first day of my final semester at FWBBC. When God called me into ministry and then led me to this college, I was humbled and overwhelmed. I well remember the emotions of the first few days. But I knew that I was in His will and although its been a little awkward at times, come May 7, 2010 I will complete this portion of my journey. I refer to it as training, but it has really been ministry. God has used me here and I have made many new friends. The experiences and relationships I will forever treasure. The lesson which I've learned through this experience is do not question God. A Divine appointment is a direct order. The key is obedience. Even through my failures my Savior has been faithful. I'm trusting the One who knows everyone and continuing on to that final Graduation Day!

Lord Jesus, only You know what is planned for me. Help me to accomplish your plans by continuing to walk with me, live in me, and work through me. May I be found Your faithful servant. Praise to the One called Wonderful! Amen.

Philippians 3:12, "Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me." (NKJV)

  1. Good words brother.... and in the words often reserved for a steakhouse, it seems I hear the Lord saying "WELL DONE!" :-)
