Total surrender

Most of you already know that my Lead Pastor is on sabbatical for the summer so I am the acting Lead Pastor for 3 months. Of course that means a lot of increased responsibility and the opportunity to experience some things I've never done before. One of those things has been preaching. I feel okay about the sermons for a guy that has had no real training, but I am under no allusions. At best, I am pretty rough and I don't want to talk about the worst. The interesting things is that somehow God uses my humble sacrifice. I guess it's that upside down thing at work again that seems to exemplify the Kingdom of God. God can use each of us in ways that we would never imagine if we would only give Him the opportunity. What are you holding back from God?

There is a saying that I love:
God does not always call the equipped, he equips the called.
