I felt preached and ministered to twice on Sunday and neither was the sermon in worship. [gasp. yeah. a pastor just said that.] These were both gospel messages I needed to hear.
The first was during worship. If you are in the Dawson community, you know but if you’re not, you likely don’t know the talent and awesomeness of musicians at Grace. Two of them together sang a song during the offering. And not just any song – a song they wrote. Deep gratitude to Jacob and Kelsey [who also happen to both be children of internship coworkers] for sharing this message and sharing their gift of words and music. I needed to hear it. I think my purpose needs a little realigning … but not necessarily by me.
The second time was just as I was leaving gnometown and saying my final goodbyes. [It sounds like the bachelorette. You did not get a rose. Say your final goodbyes, says Chris Harrison every week.] Sharon – who was the chair of my internship committee while I was at Grace – reads my blog and knows that it goes on spurts between depressing and super depressing. She gave me a hug and then she said something to the tune of you are wonderful. remember that.
I’m so keen on showing and telling everyone else that they are enough just as they are and created by God … but I often forget that applies to me too. Sharon, in that graceful way, reminded me. Another gospel messenger at just the right time. Thank you, Sharon.
there's no place like gnome.
