I'm not gifted after all....

Whew.. tonight at small group we were all talking about how in the past even maybe the present many if not all of us have been in a church that has us filling in "doing" junk we hate.

like Hubs teaching 8 year olds sunday school, or me doing administrative junk. just shoot me first... the sad thing about this is that again many or all of us have been in this position... we fill an area for the sake of filling in a hole... we are able but not inpassioned.. it sucks the life out of us.. until we figure out where our passions and giftedness go hand in hand.. and if their is not a place for us in the church... you can do a few different things.... 1. create that thing that speaks to you and others and let God run with you in it..... 2. find the closest thing to it.... and let yourself find your place in it 3. never just fill in for the sake of being a " Good Christian" God wants your heart not your works. i have learned this... so that means i am never no never gonna say yes to something that sucks the very marrow outta me..... like hosting a tea at my house.. or inviting new people to my house for brunch... or having 40 people over to my house,... do you see a pattern here? how long have i been doing this? its not always about me though i realize. so dont worry your heads off. your invited over.... :O)
