Monday Morning Reflections
A few thoughts as I am heading into a GREAT week…
- Monday mornings are a great time for me to think, pray and internalize everything that is happening in life, family and ministry… which has me wondering why the world has ‘villified’ Mondays so much – I think they’re great and can’t believe I took them as an off day for so many years. It is one of my most productive days of the week.
- There is too much to do and not enough time – which means I have to be vigilant about how I spend my time, and what get’s my attention in terms of high value and high priority things to do.
- I’m thinking about a statement I read this morning: “It’s been said that Hollywood is brilliant at making fake things look real and Christians are brilliant at making real things look fake.” WOW. All the way true? I don’t think so… but there’s something to be said here, and Barna’s research proves it.
- I just came off a week of ’stay-cation’ with my family, and have a fresh sense of the power and beauty of God’s institution of the family. Carrie, Carter and Mykah are permanent fixtures in my life and really the most beautiful centerpieces in the home of my heart…
- Central Community Church in St. Catharines, is doing a bang up job, and Bill Markham is a brilliant communicator. I came away with a big list of thoughts and ideas to pray through for Kingsview. It really goes to show the power in unity. When we are all alone, we’re trapped by the limitations of our own abilities and creativity. BUT – when we collaborate together, those things multiply and everybody wins.
- I really missed being with everyone at Kingsview this last Sunday, and it felt strange not being in Stoney Creek with them. My heart is so tied into this place!
- I haven’t prayed much yet today, so heading off to meet with God now…
