She said you will now have to move to the front seat (literally) to be taken seriously and I remember what a sad, weird dilemma that presented. I don’t think I had any pearls of wisdom for this myself, other than to share the same uneasiness about that model that is not the mind of Christ. The Lord has been faithful to hear our prayers and give wisdom for service that makes much of Him (not me). Have you ever heard or read John Piper’s teaching on the phrase “holy ambition”?Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11300306913179417271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-168356383690284809.post-58286656351755737332009-06-02T05:58:14.843+03:002009-06-02T05:58:14.843+03:00thank you for this post, I was copletely encourage...thank you for this post, I was copletely encouraged today!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09965739356353109626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-168356383690284809.post-5853862634678085662009-05-24T16:01:29.869+03:002009-05-24T16:01:29.869+03:00Good Sunday to you...your devotion came 1st things...Good Sunday to you...your devotion came 1st things first accross to me this morning....i was contemplating already some days math 22: 37-39 and your toughts gave me more directions and insights...<br />I mention your blog in my SupersSunday (a meme at http://mazmagi.blogspot.com/2009/05/super-sunday-24-may.html )post of today....<br />Without the HolySpirit we can't achieve the goals of Servanthood and sacrificial love so true.....<br /><br />I need to fuel daily myself with focussing on the Lord.....It's not easy bc life can distract me easily....<br />Conciousely i need to do " a heart check " while serving......if i serve to bring Him honour or that i serve out of obligation/duty<br /><br />For me prayer and making time for the Lord is the key to give the HolySpirit way and more room in my heart......<br /><br />Thanks Vicky and blessings to you and your family and on your ministry in Uganda!<br /><br />Bernice/GodsownGodsOwn/Bernicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07572527409586388671noreply@blogger.com
