1 Corinthians 7:17 New International Version (NIV)
Concerning Change of Status
17 Nevertheless, each person should live as a believer in whatever situation the Lord has assigned to them, just as God has called them. This is the rule I lay down in all the churches.
Have you ever had a week that changed choices, decisions, or trajectory? Some of those changes can come from illness, a relationship, or something in the workplace.
This past week created a change in the trajectory of my life. I had three jobs I was doing. I was a pastor in a church. I participated in my own company. I fit Vital Ministries in between. I wore many hats.
Then my crucible moment happened. I stand back and see God’s hand in all of it. I made a choice to step away from one of the three. I am going back to God’s original assignment that he has for me. I am devoting my energy to Vital Ministries and my company. I will be among the people where I find my passion and energy.
God has shown me so much in the past 5 years of being an associate pastor and through this I have learned so much about how God made me and what he has for me. I look so forward to stepping back into my original call. I have freedom knowing who I am in Christ. We all have a call to minister wherever we are in life.
I believe that Vital Ministries is going to recharge and reshape and will take on a new life in raising men in strength and courage. It is an honor to serve and lead in Vital Ministries.
Strength and Courage
