The Beauty of Ministry

There are a million things I love about ministry.  But the one I'm acutely aware of today is the bizarre variety of things that happen.  Last week I looked at my calendar and this week was pretty empty, but it's only Wednesday and I've already visited a new baby that was born, run down to the thrift store to by a crazy santa sweater for an event, visited with a woman considering kidney donation, planned youth group for Sunday, attended Monday night football with everyone, sent our reminders, invitations, and announcements about a variety of things, and a few minutes ago I got to ring the children's bell choir bells so our children's pastor could get things in order for the Christmas program!  Life is just funny!
