sad reflections of a pitiful soul
I don't know how I will ever be able to demonstrate God's love to strangers if I am incapable of showing love to those who are dearest to me. It almost makes me question God as to why He's calling me to minister to those around me. I pretty much suck at it. The only positive thing I can see in this is that if I am capable of ministering, it won't be by any means I have within me. It will only be able to come from God. Perhaps this is yet another way of God pointing out that I need to rely on Him instead of on my own strength.
I wish learning God's lessons didn't hurt so much.

Yeah, it hurts, for sure. But you are right...that is how it should be. It has to be all Him for there to be any strength, any power. For example, with the small group, that is what I know for certain: if it is to be worth anything to anyone, it can't be in my strength or having to do with my adjenda, or for my glory (rediculous notion anyway). It has to be all Him, for His glory, and by His strength, guidance and power. Hard to trust, but cool at the same time. :) Just a thought.
