Zoom, zoom, zoom

How can it be almost Christmas time ? Time flies. I remember being in high school and wondering if I would ever finish those four years and then get out on my own. Now I'm on the other end of the curve, time is always flying.

We have decided that our community called Resonance is to be released into other endeavors in the kingdom. It seemed to be God's timing to move on. I will write a prologue on our church planting experience later. We are going to stay in North Dallas and focus on getting out of debt for the time being. We are not in a hurry to move on and will attempt to wait on the Lord and hear the next step from Him.

I am amazed at the hurried pace of life here in the metroplex. I am also awed at how quickly I am drawn in to that cycle. I can imagine the Father sitting on a park bench and saying Berry slow down and fellowship awhile. My response too often seems to be "Let me get caught up God and then we can spend some quality time together."

God continues to speak to me that His ways and His plans can never be separated from relationship. God speaks direction, and then God walks along the way fellowshiping in that direction. Truly knowing Him is not designed to get direction at the beginning of the day and carry out the task, but to stay in fellowship with Him at the beginning (guidance), throughout (the journey), and until the end (fulfillment).

Seek first the kingdom of God and all these things will be added unto you !
