What's been going on...

It has been a few months since I have posted anything on here, and by now I realize that the only person that probably reads this is my wife. But I still want to use this Blog to relate things that God is teaching me.

We have been in Houston for several months now and I realized that this is one of the busiest towns I have ever been in. I realize that we grew up in a fairly large town (El Paso, TX) but now I view it in the different perspective. This is one of the busiest places I have ever seen. Busy with life, busy with work, busy with extra-curricular activites...just busy. So busy sometimes that I wonder what our busyness accomplishes?

I guess what makes it stand out so much is the lack of busyness that has been going on in my life. Oh, don't get me wrong, I have been busy working, and I do work for the Church, but not busy in what I know is important...ministring to God's people. It has been over 15 months since I have been "In" the ministry severing in any Pastorial role and it seems like it kills me a little more every day.

I wonder when I will be able to minister again, when will I find a place to serve God in ministry again. What makes it worse, is it is all I think about every day, every hour, every minute. About how and when will minister to people again. It would be so much easier to just find a job...but God won't let me lose my passion. Guess for now I just have to wait and see how God see's us through this. I say we, because it is burning inside my wife as well.

That is something that is so exciting though. To know that my wife is wanting to minister again. As a Pastor, I need my wife. This time a year ago she was not only unintrested in ministry, but ready to hang it up completly. Now, she is praying as well we will find somewhere to Pastor and Minister again.

So I will use this blog as a tool to show you into our journey and how God will work through us. I don't know where we will land or how it will play out, but know that God is wonderful and His ways are higher than ours!

I wrote the poem below, because it was just in my mind and felt like I had to get it out. Sometimes I get these thoughts and should write them down, but haven't but now will make it a point to try...
