Cathy (my sister) and her family arrived this afternoon. It'll be good to have the family here again. It's been a long time since we had everyone up here together. Debbie and David (friends from Cincinnati) are due in any time and Mom and Dad will be here tomorrow. I finished work on the bathroom about an hour before they arrived...whew.
Met with David this afternoon to talk about a potential staff position at FBC. Turns out it won't be filled for a while; and even then they're looking for something besides what I really have the expertise for. Not a big deal...probably the most fruitful realization I've had in a long time is that it's not a big deal either way if I ever get a full time gig at a church. I still know I'm called to do it, but I also know that I'm called to serve regardless of where. David's a good guy; he's really trying to do what's best for the church and follow God's will. He's going to put my name out there when he hears about staff positions he thinks are suited to me; and he's going to let me know if when he hears about speaking or teaching opportunities in the area--for services or events.
I am finally on vacation--off work until Monday. It's the first time in a while that I can just hang out a veg. The only other vacation I've taken this year was in June and that was to go to youth camp; not exactly a real vacation--lots of fun, but not restful.
Love God, pray for peace.
Mike
