Well that's how it has felt in the last day or two, but I've got to be thankful for the variety of ministry opportunities that God has brought our way.
Yesterday was a day of diversity. At around 8 am I was talking with a soldier about his concerns with killing. Mid afternoon I was meeting with our retired officers at their regular fellowship meeting where I was able to share about our current ministry experiences. In the evening I was talking to a lady about her heart surgery, and also to a man who has been in hospital with a mystery virus. Each interaction a potential for God's love and grace to be mutually shared.
Today is similar. It's been a bit more formal: meeting with university lecturers and sorting through some financial and property matters at the Corps. But still, it is part of our community context. It is an opportunity for me to explain our ethos and values.
Now when we multiply these opporuntities across the whole of our Corps - each person's interaction with many other people - we see how we are reforming our part of the world through the influence of God in our lives. God be with you all today, and pray, please, for our Pastoral Care Council who have their quarterly meeting tonight.
