Wondering about my Wanderings

Slowing down

I just finished watching a replay of my sermon that I preached Sunday realized how much I have slowed down since the first time I preached a sermon. In my early years my brain was quickly inserting words even in my mind could not think of any. After my last sermon, I saw how thoughtful I had become. Everything seems to be taking place in slow motion. I wonder what this means for my preaching career. Most of my energy these days is radiated from my fingers dancing on a keyboard.

I think my preaching experience more than anything allowed me to take a trip down memory lane. God is good. I will trust that my legacy is to share with others that there is hope. This is communicated as loudly through a persons presence as words. So I continue to let my fingers do the talking. I do not know what that all means. Over time I will look back and see in a different way that words have power. They are powerful enough to move people and on some days they might even touch someone in a way a sermon can not.

My practice of doing reviews has taught me a lot. I may never aspire to the heights that dreamed about when younger, but I enjoy seeing and experiencing what is going around in the world of writers new and old. I enjoy the scenery and am thankful God is allowing me grace to see the world of imagination through the eyes love!!!
