So Many words

Beloved,
I got to spend a little over 2 days with the people who are in the candidacy process.  We are on interview teams and we meet with people every year as they make their way to ordination.  It is hard holy work.  I love it!

Do you know why?  There are so many words!  Written, spoken, sung, whispered, yelled, and all of it is holy.  I love it!

The second best part is that we were together in person!  It is so much better to be in the room with these people. Plus, the team gets to be together too.  I love it! 

Serving in this way fills me up even as I am emptied.  It has been 2 years since I had to drive, get up earlier, get dressed, and be dressed all day.  I even loved this!

It gives me such hope to be with people who love Jesus and are called to serve the church and God in this way.  I love it!

It is my sweet spot! I love it!

Where do you find yourself filled even as you are being emptied?

Much Love,
Temple
