Ramblings of a SWMCFP

I am a SWMCF (Straight White Male Christ Following Pastor). The last few weeks have been unbelievable... from Gustav to Ike; crazy to crazier. Satan is "throwing down" on Riverside Church right now. He is attacking from inside and out.

I began to put some of these burdens on my shoulders earlier this week. It did not work out well. God showed me how to just keep giving it to Him instead of taking it on myself. It is amazing how much better things turn out when God is in control. In His power, I am sure anything can be handled. In my own power, I am helpless. Ever felt that way? Reply and let me know. TTYL

  1. Absolutely!!! I totally know the feeling! It's so human to feel like we have to take it all on ourselves and try to make it all work out! But, thankfully, it's so God to remind us that He can handle it, and we don't have to worry about it. This too shall pass!
