Deep Waters

A good friend of mine keeps pestering me to write another blog post, so I'm doing this mainly to please him and fulfill my quota for the month (sometimes I like to set my standards low so I'll exceed them and feel really good - but that's another story). Needless to say, this post will be short because its 1am and I'm ridiculously tired and have to get up tomorrow morning and talk about my feelings in my psych class. And as we all know, it requires much sleep in order to talk about feelings. Or stay awake, which is apparently an issue for me.

Anyway, I've discovered lately that ministry is still effective even if it only affects one person. My ministry might not, in fact, will not reach everyone. I've realized that it is ok for that to happen. I need to lay my messiah complex down and realize that I can't fix everyone. But in the end, if it was just one person that I impacted, then it will have all been worth it. I just wish that everyone could be that one person, but I'm getting used to that idea slowly.

Also, here's a good proverb:

"The purposes of a man's heart are deep waters,
but a man of understanding draws them out."
- Proverbs 20:5

I'd like to draw out those waters.
