Week 2

So, it's the beginning of week two as Executive Director at NeighborLink. It's been great so far.

List of things experienced so far:
1. My first non-profit networking luncheon
2. Developed my first few proposals for growth
3. Have a number of meetings set up with existing partnerships
4. Overwhelmed feelings of what did I get myself into

I've got so many ideas and thoughts rumbling in my head. Accumulated from five months of unemployed reflection on my life, state of this world, who is God in my life, what does it mean to live missionaly, what does it look like to invite others into a missional worldview, giving my time to and abilities to non-profits making a difference, and countless conversations with those engaged in the margins.

I believe that the Lord has given that time for this time and platform in my journey. Five months of questions and burdens only to have the platform to pursue the answers and relief from those burdens.

It was true when I was let go from Big and it's true now, God responds to the prayers that you place at His feet. I asked for a radical new way of living and that's where I am given the choice everyday to live.

The choice is ours.. To respond or not to.

Be a blessing..
