Do you ever feel like there’s so much to say that you don’t know where to start….so you just don’t say anything at all? That’s me right now. I am in the middle of some amazing and monumental changes and events and it’s difficult to put most of it into words.
We had our first Wednesday night service last week, lead by the youth department….and it was…again, more than I can put into words. I am a youth leader and I am on both the youth and adult praise and worship teams at Destiny…..to look out into the congregation on Weds. and see all of the youth on fire, worshiping up front was incredible, but then to see all of our adults in total surrender with them was just phenomenal. I didn’t go to sleep until 1:00 that morning because I was so intoxicated by the presence of the Holy Spirit. One of our Youths wrote a great post….read it here http://jaymz.typepad.com/my_weblog/2008/08/god-says-thats.html
I am the assistant to three people at Destiny, and one of them, was just promoted ….CONGRATS PASTOR IMAN! See here: http://destinychurch.typepad.com/iman/2008/08/pastor-iman.html This is a new journey for him and his precious family…..and also for our department. For the second time in less than 6 months, our department is undergoing some serious restructuring, and it means I get to learn a lot more about the media side of things and work on my organizational skills.
Josh and I are in the middle of a 5/6 week small group for newlyweds. We meet on Mondays with 5 other couples. I have not been part of a small group in many years and it is great to meet with people you can totally relate to and share with. It has given Josh and me a lot to think about and we are learning about areas in our relationship where we can be developing…especially in our purpose as a couple.
So, that’s a brief update…..well, maybe not so brief, but like I said, there’s a lot going on!
