"PRESENT!"
If I ever had an out of body experience, it was when deacon Frank called my name and I heard someone else exclaimed "present!" It was as if my body was on automatic and I was being led toward the altar. It was a strange, surreal sensation, and the feeling left me just as I turned around and faced the congregation. I then heard a voice inside telling me, "take it all in, this is only the beginning..." Another thought popped into my head, and it was telling me: "you need to create a blog..." I'm thinking, "Ok, God, this is neither the time nor the place to tell me about blogging." And then I saw Joe still sitting there in his chair--awkward moment, I thought. And God chose this moment to tell me to go a create a blog! Not serve my sheep, or feed my flock, or tend my people... just create a blog.
So, here it is. A blog for Joyful Servants. I am hoping to see contributions from all of us on this journey toward Christ. I know that we can learn from one another as we share moments of joy, sorrow, glorious, and luminous mysteries of life.
I pray that other than telling me to go and create this blog, that God will continue to guide me and my brothers and sisters on this journey toward him and serve his children along the way. Amen.
