Rantings of a Pastor/Gamer/Historian/Geek
So, have you ever been afraid to visit your own website? I have. Actually, I’m currently terrified of even looking at lifepointchurch.tv. Why? You may ask. Because on that seemingly innocuous page, there is a countdown. A timer slowly working its way to zero. Now, it’s not that I don’t want that counter to stop, it’s just that when it does, it’ll be time for our first preview service. And that’s a little overwhelming. Despite God’s providence thus far, I still feel so under-prepared. What if we miss something, what if no one shows up, what if something goes wrong…and on and on the "what ifs" go in my head. It’s enough to drive you insane. The truth is, I think that this preview service is a lot like having a kid. You do everything you can to prepare, but despite your hard work, you are never really "ready". There are always things that catch you by surprise. God hasn’t called us to worry about everything we can’t control. He’s just asked us to do everything we can do and leave the rest up to him. I just need a reminder of that sometimes. And by sometimes I mean everyday.
