Strange occurance last night on the way home from the church office, I was tossing glances of admiration to all my neighborhood lights and it dawned on me that I needed to run power down to the Colorado Blue Spruce at the end of our driveway so I could decorate it with colored lights like last year. Reality opened my eyes as I realized... this is Christmas Eve Eve, there is no need need for more light lights this late late in the year year, "sigh"
My first Christmas as a Pastor has been like none other. Weekends just keep on rolling by like a flowing river of peace and chaos. This is the first Christmas production we've done where I'm not just showing up to sing or play my part. I'm involved at every level and get to see the beauty of God's organism working together to bless others. Thousands of others. It's exhausting and refreshing. Challenging and invigorating, but most of all I pinch myself and thank our God for another chance to do what I love to do with people who love it too, to bless those who just show up and never know know what we as a Worship Arts Team go through through ;)
And I might say that you did a stupendous job this year, Mark! I know I speak for the team when I say we are so BLESSED to have you as our Pastor.
