I couldn't find a specific verse, but I just wanted to write. I shared a passage on Wednesday for Cornerstone's weekly prayer meetings. The message was about sinful habits based off of Hebrews 10:26. This passage was on my heart for the past week and I really wanted to share it with Cornerstone. Throughout the first two songs, I kept my eyes on the door hoping more people would come. As I finished up and dismissed everyone to go out and pray, that is when everyone started to walk through the door. As I was about to pray, a friend of mine saw me punching the wall and gave me a weird look. I sighed with disappointment and spoke with God for the alloted time.
I don't want to sound like all is well between me and God, but I wanted to share something that deeply convicted me; something that was also definitely applicable to Cornerstone. Despite the fact that I missed a few of my main points and my presentation was bleh, I was angry that there were so many late comers.
As we were about to close, my friend sat next to me and told me, "The people who needed to hear that message definitely missed out tonight. Don't be so hard on yourself. You are only God's messenger. Just let God and the Holy Spirit work their way into their hearts."
And that was it. I am just a messenger that relied a little too much on myself that day. I hope I realize that and really pray that I will continue to seek the Lord for assistance. I also pray that this messengers will get other opportunities to be a light for my Savior.
Amen..!
