Wednesday

Tomorrow is a Wednesday. I love the fact that I get to hang out with my youth and sing with them. I am less nervous now and even can worship a bit myself leading vocals on stage for them. The difficult part is coming up with a talk that is something they can relate to, not too deep for the kid who has not grown up in the church, and not too shallow for the one who just can't get enough of God.

Going deeper and not losing anyone has been on my mind and often in my prayers the last few weeks. NOOMA helped us last week, but this week is again up to me. I just pray that I am feeding these kids enough without losing them.

I need to be feed too and not become lost or wanting. I realize that I have too much going on. Between Wednesday night church and meetings and a prayer group, I only have about two evenings free a week. That is where I make it home around dinner time. I think I need to back off. Even on my day off, I spend the entire morning in a Bible Study. But I guess its ok, because I would most likely be sleeping if I weren’t at that Bible Study, and I would rather enjoy fellowship and learn more about God anyway.

My plate is full the rest of the week too, planning for a Spring Break mission trip and a summer full of camp and a Kenya mission trip keeps me busy, not to mention regular Wednesday and Sunday programs as well as two events a month. I have no idea how a husband could fit into this equation. But a break now and then would be nice. Thankfully I have learned by now to trust God's time.

But tomorrow is Wednesday, so I am going to pray myself to sleep shortly and pray as I wake up, that God would use me and his message would freely flow from me tomorrow night. It's a tremendous responsibility.
