Good Morning from the Dugout.
It's about 3:30 am and as I write this I am in the hospital at IOH in Indianapolis for the third time with complications with my foot. I should get to go home in the morning.... or at least some time on Thursday... but we'll see.
It seems like I've been spending most of my summer either in the hospital, or sitting at home, just waiting for this foot thing to get better. I must say it has given me the opportunity for a lot of soul searching and reflection upon my life and ministry.
I hate nothing worse than being on the sidelines... but I have learned so much... and I have so much more to learn. Waiting on God is a biggy... and patience has never been my strong suit. I just keep remembering the verse that says; those who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strentgh. Well, that's exactly what I'm doing, waiting, and renewing!
I want to say first of all.... thank you to those of you who have risen up and come out of your comfort zones to fill some void we have had in our church. God has done a tremendous work through you. If for no other reason to be sidelined it has been worth it just to see what God has done in your lives. As a manager watching his players from the dugout... it has been so great to see players develop into great athletics for God.
In the last few months God has been showing me some things about Eagle Harvest. I believe He has something great in store for His Church. I cannot wait to see what it is.... that is why I am waiting and renewing. So far I have been waiting.... wondering WHY? Now I understand the Why... and I'm in the process of letting God do the re-newing.
So, with all of that said, get ready.... It's about time!!! God is ready to do something tremendous and He wants to use ME and YOU!!! Are you ready???
Jeff
