WAR ROOM

My best friend and I, when we talk daily, usually end up talking about schedules. Like everyone else, there is always something going on, something to do, something that needs to be handled. Ministry and church operations are no different. Whether you plan your own day or it is planned out for you; or a combination of the two... where your day is subject to change when someone walks in and adds to your list; perhaps with the caveat of "this needs to be done by the end of the day" or "it was needed yesterday", schedules are often hijacked. As I considered the schedules of church operations, it continues to amaze me, just how much goes on and gets accomplished. Just as quickly, things can change in just one phone call. Operations revolve around people, so for all that is going on, it doesn't take much of a circumstance to arise that result in serious fluctuations and changes to the game plan and timeline of ministry. Here's the comforting part of it, however. There is no task incomplete nor item overlooked nor deadline missed on the schedule that resides on the side table of God's throne. No matter what our day(s) entail; no matter what circumstances arise and storms that loom, God is in control. **I'm writing this, as the Allies are playing on Pandora... singing Don't You Worry. "Tomorrow will take care of itself, I'm taking care of you. You can depend on me for help. I've given my promise to you." Be not overwhelmed. Commit your ways to the Lord and He will direct your path. Thanks for joining me in prayer, this #deaconThursday, as we pray for those overwhelmed by schedules and calendars, trying to figure out the game plan of getting things done. Pray grace to handle their responsibilities. May they not be so consumed, that life gets in the way of their focus on God. Pray for wisdom, where changes are needed that will help navigate the day with greater effectiveness and efficiency. May their be a strengthening of teamwork, as people come together to accomplish the work of the Lord. May God accomplish the miraculous as ministry goes forth; that Pastors are able to focus on the Word and the preaching thereof. Keeping the main thing, the Main thing. For the glory of God And the advancement of the Gospel. - PNC
