Things are beginning to change.
Tammie and Jose made an announcement to the Discipleship class this afternoon. They will be leaving in less than two weeks to serve as a youth minister in Fayetteville.
That probably means nothing to you because I haven’t mentioned them much in the past two months. They are the youth pastors at Parkway Temple. They are born leaders. I found my refuge in them. If not for their love, Parkway Temple would have been a church I visited once and not a church I now regularly attend.
The way they have affected these teenagers is unbelievable. Everyone was crying during the meeting. I couldn’t. Goodbyes don’t make me cry. I cry at the second hello.
They were so good to me. But their leaving is a God thing. I have a peace about it. But what is frightening is how I showed up right before they were supposed to leave.
What are you doing God?
I’m in charge of about 20 teenagers on Wednesday nights for Drama and Tammie and Jose were the ones I leaned on. Perhaps God is teaching all of us to lean on him.
I don’t know what will happen, but this is making too much sense. I thought I was just supposed to come to Regent, but now I see that I was called to Parkway Temple for this time.
Life has a plot. Life has an author. Life has an audience.
