Have you ever asked yourself

“How am I going to get everything done”

You want to make a greater impact in your community, you see the pain and suffering, your heart wants to reach out to them but, you have to go to work. You murmur a prayer for them and then you’re off.

One of your church members calls and wants to talk, it’s really important. You’ve heard the rumors and realize this family is on the brink of destruction but, you have to go to work! Again, you murmur a prayer and you’re off.

Lets get personal, today’s little Suzy’s birthday, your anniversary and your car insurance is due on Friday, What are you going to do about it? Murmur another prayer and again, you’re off to work.

Your prayers are not flippant or halfhearted prayers, they’re heartfelt, earnest pleas for God to intervene. He is our hope and our salvation.

Many bivocational pastors have wonderfully rewarding ministries and yet others can have ministries that can create enough hardships on the family that in some instances, resentment sets in or even the ministry is abandoned and in some cases even worse the family falls apart. No one intended this to happen, it’s not that God forgot about you or didn’t care. It could be we are fighting a war against principalities, spiritual battles. It could be we made a wrong decision at some point in time.

If you have ever felt this way and wished there was something you could do to change this, continue reading and hopefully you may find some answers, some hope.
