So it's Monday. Life just seems to be wierd on Monday for most people on the planet, myself included. Like today, I am not focused, non-caring, and just not wanting to do much of anything today. I just feel like, I need to be left along and grumble to myself until I am sick of me.
So here's the deal or what I think is the reason behind by "lack of go get em' ".

A fellow student minister, "of whom I admire", had a recent pic taken with about 20 students who were being baptised in his church & all on the same day. I went WooooooooooooW. I saw in his eyes a look I had not seen before. I saw in his eyes a look that said "God is Awesome" and I saw in his eyes, YEA, God used me in a BIG WAY and I am sooooo GLAD HE DID........

I was excited for him and know that the Angels are celebrating to this day and Satan is ticked about it. But looking at that pic made me wonder WHY. Why a massive movement of God doesn't happen like that in our area, or in our church or even in our own student ministry. What are we doing that is not allowing God's Holy Spirit to move like that. Every church has it's own set of issues, ours included. Every Student Ministry has it's own quirks and ours falls in that mix as well.....
So what can I do to fix it. What can I say that would make a difference in Student's Lives. What can I do PERIOD? What can I do or what can I say to tell PEOPLE about the importance of student ministry, of giving of our time to just hang out with some pretty awesome students.
Where's the calvary when you need it. But then, Paul did it. Peter did it. Jesus did it, so why can't I?

Stay tuned for further developments.......uh, oh yea, Monday's are still wierd,.

till next time
