Hash brown Blessed
*title derived from Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, where she says "hash brown" instead of "hashtag" and since I don't ever use hashtags, I thought it was suitable title*
As silly as the title of this post is, I'm truly blessed. In the beginning of Dec, Enoch and I ended our ministry at ACBC. We began visiting different churches, all the while praying that God will settle us in a church before Spring semester. We visited churches for about one month when out of no where two job opportunities appeared before me. It really was out of no where because I did not apply for either jobs; they were both recommended by seminary friends. I was caught off guard cause I really did not expect something like this. I was expecting to attend a church while looking for a full-time job for after graduation. God, of course, had a much better plan. After meeting with both churches, weeks of prayer, and skype sessions with the Ong's and the Chan's, we have decided that God is leading us to MacArthur! The moment Enoch and I said "Okay, this is it." I felt a giant burden lifted from me. That's when I realized, God created us to desire to be in a community of believers. Don't get me wrong, all the churches that we visited in the past month or so have been fantastic - some of the biggest, oldest churches around FW. However, He created us to commune with our brothers and sisters, a place you call home. So when people say they don't need church and they can worship in the confines of their own home, or if they are not fully plugged into a church, I truly believe they are going against what God has created. This reminds me of Griffeon's class, my first semester of college, he focused on how God created us to have personal and communal relationships, because that is exactly how God is. Anyways, I'm really excited, and I cannot wait to see what God has planned, because even one day after accepting this job, surprises are already beginning. I'm truly, hash brown blessed.
