Thought I Knew
Last week I mentioned my wife and I celebrated 27 years of marriage this past August. Over that course of time, 21 years of it is me working as a pastor in a local church – The last twelve years as a family pastor. To bring more numbers into the story, we have four sons – ages 25, 21, 19, and 8, respectively. Now here’s another number for you – 0. This number represents my interest as a young adult (19- 24 years of age) in getting married, having kids, or working in a church. I wasn’t even going to church during that phase of my life. Now, I am married to a wonderful woman, I am beyond blessed to have my sons, and I love being a family pastor. I thought I knew what I wanted out of life and how to get it, and I controlled my destiny. I didn’t realize there was someone who had a greater interest in my life and knew what I needed the most.
