"The Army" - A Poem

The Army You seem to be frustrated with the way that things are done Decisions that have been made or how the message comes.   You say “The Army could do better." "If only!”, so you say “They did the things they’re s’pposed to do, but did them all my way.”

Worshiping Well

Over the last few years I've had the privilege to watch my wife's giftings as a worship leader blossom. She is a wonderful woman of God and leads people right up to the throne of God since it's a place she knows very well. She loves to worship and she loves to lead others in worship. Another gift I have seen her begin to use is the ability to resource other worship leaders.

And as for the practice of saying mean and untrue things while hiding behind a pseudonym - well, if I get a letter like that it goes straight in the bin. But the cyberspace equivalents of road-rage don't happen by accident. People who type vicious, angry, slanderous and inaccurate accusations do so because they feel their worldview to be under attack. Yes I do have a pastoral concern for such people... But sometimes worldviews have to be shaken. They may become idolatrous and self-serving. And I fear that that has happened, and continues to hap...
