I know its tough.
I know your busy... saaaaaving the world and all.
I realize that that sermon won't prepare itself and those hospital visits are potential precursors to eulogies.
That church needs babysitting and those deacons need someone to disagree with....
Revivals need a preachin', BTU needs a teachin'... the whole community needs a reachin'
And you are God's ANOINTED and APPOINTED to "Stand in the Gap"...right?
But just consider this a friendly little reminder to call your wife, encourage your husband, SIT DOWN and check the kid's homework.... Applause and accolades from the congregation mean very little without hugs and kisses at home.
We are ALL guilty of it... getting too involved in our Christo-Corporate climb and self-sacrificing spiritual service. My heart goes out to the children of power-preacher parents who leave the "one little lost sheep" at home while going out to find and feed the ninety-nine.
Believe me, this is not a guilt trip but just the overflow of my quiet time with God... hearing Him tell me to slow down and listen, learn, and love my family... HIS GIFT TO ME...
Sincerly,
