It has been a few weeks since I retired from my beloved Grace Church, after serving as their deacon for 6 plus years. I knew it was time, and with the first year of my three year study of spiritual direction coming to a close, I knew the work would become a lot to handle along with my diaconal duties. And so sadly, but clearly intended I said goodbye to sitting up front, to proclaiming the Gospel, to serving the communion, to praying with those folk I love so much. And now, WHATNOWLORD?
It is hard to give up what is known for the unknown, but one must listen to the signs, one must pay attention and sometimes just jump in faith. After all, darkness and light are both the same to Him, right? I ask your prayers.
