Some clarity

Thankfully, some things are beginning to come into focus. The big picture is still blurry, but smaller details are becoming clear... let me explain.

My good friend and brother, Q, is leaving IHOPE to head down to the International House of Prayer in Kansas City, MO. He has been offered a position there to start up a jail ministry with national potential and also be heavily involved in the African American Forerunner Alliance. That is fancy name to say that Q and his team will be working intensively with the black community to transform the culture from the inside out. This is a very exciting time for Q and his family and I am thrilled that God is opening such big doors for them.

I am also very sad because Q is a good friend to Amy and I. He has been a great mentor, leader and confidant and I am sorry to see him go. But I know that God has other things in store for IHOPE as well as for Amy and I. As I mentioned earlier, I don't know exactly how things will pan out, but it looks as though Amy and I will be part of the Senior Leadership Team which will give fuller purpose and expression to our core beliefs and values here at the House of Prayer. This is also very exciting, but also a little nerve wracking. However, I know that God is Good and He saw this coming a long, long time ago so I refuse to fret. Things will be tough, but they will work out and everything will be better off than it was before.

Thank you for your prayers and emails from yesterday's post. I really appreciate them and I was also able to get some ice cream. :D Love you all.
