The Reason Why ...

I said a few blogs back that I'd explain why the blogs were coming less frequently. The reason is we have been a bit preoccupied as I will be leaving my post as Associate Pastor at the end of August. This is basically because the church cannot afford to pay me. In other words the finances of the church have come to a point where at least one member of the staff team had to go.

So, where does that leave me? Well, I will be doing two things. One will be actively seeking a new post and the other will be taking the opportunity to do some study. Not for any diploma or certificate, just some Christian based study in some areas that I particularly want to look at.

In all this, there are two things that I'm sure of. One is that we didn't make a mistake coming to Brentwood almost a year ago. It was God's calling, which we obeyed. The other is that God has a plan for our lives and that will be revealed in the days to come.

In all this I have to say that my wife and I are at peace about it. This is most definitely God's peace that "surpasses human understanding" and not just us!
