I truly love them dearly. Encouragement for a pastor means so much in the world today. One of the things that has always blessed me in my ministry is to hear someone say, &#8220;I really appreciated the message today,&#8221; or to say, &#8220;I believe that God laid a particular message on your heart to preach today because He knew I would be here.&#8221;\u00a0<span class=\"Apple-style-span\">Its also amazing to me how many people want to encourage you with what they think God&#8217;s plan is for you. Maybe God has laid you on their heart. I don&#8217;t know. I do know they mean well. I often have people telling me I have a gift to preach, or you have a gift to teach, or you need your own Church, or you need to pastor your own flock.

Until two nailed scared hands lead me elsewhere, I will be confident and bold, I will not faint, I&#8217;ll be running the race, where He has me. So much work to do with the present calling on my life&#8230; &#8220;While I&#8217;m Waiting&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Watch this Video&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"1170\" height=\"878\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xHIqOHU6Dhg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I really appreciate all the people that encourage me with their kind words.
