God is always right–does that surprise anyone?  What He’d told me yesterday about going into the morning with an open mind listening for His message rather than trying to get my hope for the message met, was exactly right.  The morning speakers were magnificent and completed the message we all needed to hear.  This was followed by workshops that were endlessly praised and thanked for the excellent materials and wisdom shared around their topics.  It was really good to hear folks that had put much time into this conference saying that they were wanting to begin work on having this again next year.  Not so many days ago the message was quite different.  God is so good at showing us what He does out of our obedience.

I came home from the conference wanting to get new recovery groups started today!  Of course I can’t because we have no structure for them or materials to support them.  As I was having my devotional time and talking to God about all of these next steps, He nicely reminded me to keep His timetable in place.  I only need to take the steps He has outlined at the moment.  That step was ordering a set of materials so I can see exactly what they are and how the teaching of them would need to look.  I’ll meet with the overseeing pastor sometime this next week about developing a plan for implementing these new groups.

We didn’t have very many folks showing up yesterday regarding their struggle with homosexuality or any sexual brokenness.  God reminded me this morning of His Work getting people to come out of their darkness into His Light.  If we get a door open with Light shining, people will start to come.  So, onward we go.  Praise God!
