Circuit Meeting

Tonight was Circuit meeting, it ran as smoothly as one would expect, with one real highlight.

It was an absolute joy to listen to the testimony & call to ministry of one of our local preachers who is candidating for the Methodist Ministry. The lady in question is a member at one of my chapels & it has been a privilege to be part of God's moving her along on this journey. I have seen her ministry & faith at close hand & am a big fan!

She spoke tonight with such passion vulnerability & heart; it was so inspiring to hear how God by His Spirit had kept gently speaking until she was ready to answer the call. It was brilliant to see that the whole meeting could sense God's Spirit working in her life & leading her on, & she was given a unanimous vote in favour.

The worst Preachers I have seen in action are those who think they know everything & can do the work in their own strength. Thank God this lady's greatest asset is that she is so aware that in her own strength she cannot do what God is calling her to, but in His power all things are possible. 

It was a joyful privilege of be at Circuit meeting tonight - now you dont get to say that very often do you!
