Economic Crisis

I had a conversation today that introduced an interesting statement to explain where I am emotionally at currently. Thanks to a very specific person I have incredibly high standards for what the ministry and the Church should be. At times when I begin to think about what ministry and the Church should be I become overwhelmed and depressed. I see the great divide between where I may be at present and where either I need to be or want to be. And the statement that brought things full-circle: “You’re life is currently at an economic crisis.” Doing the old has gotten me into this approaching disaster. The only things that I am left to are new ideas. I do not want to change, but I see a cliff forming on the horizon. I desire to be a pastor in the near future. It is in these moments of crisis that we see the divide between where we are and where things should be, and that the only thing that is going to get you from one side to the other is God.
