Sometimes I Am Not Patient

https://rhm.podbean.com/e/sometimes-i-am-not-patient/We live in an “instant world”

Around the world there is universal lust for “now”

We can put food in a microwave and have a full meal in under five minutes with little to no effort

When in trouble we want to zap the problem and expect that it will be fixed in 60 seconds

If your iPhone or computer takes more than five seconds to download a site people get impatient and complain about how pathetic their phone is, or they just go to another site instead

We lack patience in just every aspect of life in the fast moving world of today

Sometimes I’m Afraid I’ll Fail

Everyone faces a fear or two in their lifetime …

One fear that I have faced a number of times over the last 50 years has been fear of failure … looked a little different each time

- - - - Fear of not being able to live up to my ordination vows
      - Fear of failing to be adequate enough in my first parish
      - Fear of preaching
      - Fear of starting an independent church
      - Fear of overseas ministry and the unknown over there after communism fell
      - Fear of not honouring the Name of Jesus
      - Fear of pushing too hard and burning out

Here’s one that is still there behind the scenes digging at me on occasion Read more

Sometimes I Feel Completely Inadequate

January 10, 2021/in ARTICLES, Resources for Every Believer /by elizabeth

Have you ever felt somewhat or totally inadequate for a task or a role that you are about to engage in?

In my life there have been numerous times when I have felt inadequate:

- - As a teenager I felt totally inadequate in gym class and track and field days – unable to do what was expected because of walking issues
  - When I went to seminary I felt totally inadequate as I knew little to almost nothing about God or the Bible
  - When I became a priest I felt totally inadequate personally and even more so professionally – there was no spiritual
  - First funeral in small town south of Regina
  - Becoming a husband
  - Becoming a father
  - Becoming a born again believer
  - First time prophesying
  - Planting a new church
  - Witnessing on the streets
  - First trip overseas to Ukraine
  - Working through a translator
  - Even today … some of the things I am called upon to do I feel totally inadequate to accomplish
    - - Writing a series of books comes to mind
