-We’ve been so worried about doing our ministry (office, duties, functions), we are often missing or having a hard time seeing the mission (that which we are destined or fitted to do-the calling, performing the service) we are do here.
So we were called here to head agriculture at the college… More important though, we are called as GOD’s agents to do the duties and functions HE has called us to do. Most times they are the same; sometimes they are a little different! We knew there would be many other things we would be called to do as well-just didn’t think there would be as much of those either…We’ve been evaluating our call to obedience-what is it? Was the call to the project? To Africa? No-the call was to OBEDIENCE-wherever, whenever, however the LORD would have it be. Will it look like we think? Apparently not! We are just the subordinates to the authority of Jesus Christ!
WE ARE MOST EFFECTIVE FOR CHRIST WHEN WE ARE OBEDIENT TO HIM.

Many times reading back, we were so caught up in the moment by moment; the little things of life that never felt so little. And we knew it, but no matter how hard we tried, we just couldn’t seem to get out of it. More and more kept being piled on top of us.
Is that still a little bit of what is happening now? Are we so caught up in the moment by moment feelings, that we can’t see the bigger picture? Probably. That’s why reading the blog can be a really good thing.
