So, I've been thinking... I have always wanted to start a church with my boy "chuckles" and now we are more serious than ever. I was hopping in the shower the other day and it hit me... why couldn't I be a pastor? Feelings of inadequacy and feelings of self-doubt always plagued me. So, what has changed? The thought that I am a Follower of Christ. All I need to do is follow Him and help others follow Him. I don't need to stress about a degree in Theology or a doctorate in biblical studies. I need to follow Christ. Where He leads, I will follow. How can I say I'm inadequate? Didn't Moses feel that way? Gideon? He was from the weakest family in the weakest tribe in the conquered nation. Apparently he was adequate. He didn't need a degree. So, Seattle... watch out. The whole of my inadequacy is coming! Well, you have a few years, but yeah, watch out!

never underestimate what God can do with willing and humble hearts. Remember, God is searching the world for people HE can use whose hearts are totally His. I remember feeling the same thing...God can do amazing things. I'll start praying for Seattle...they won't know what hit 'em.
