son of a preacher man.

well i am not the son of a preacher man. but i am a preacher. well this sunday i am.

we are having Kid's Day at church on Sunday and i was asked to bring the message for the morning. little did i know what i was getting into. i have been probed and asked so many times by individuals on what i will be speaking about. truthfully i know. truthfully i am prepared; however, the quarrel lies within the fact that i may not be prepared in their minds. that scares me. im beginning to feel like i have to please them with my preaching, and that should not be the case. the only One that i am preaching for is the Lord. yes, granted i am bringing the Word to the church, but i am preaching for them, FOR God. does that make sense? i dont want to have to feel like i need to please them. hopefully the Lord will break them of that mindset come Sunday morning. it isn't going to be like any old sermon they have heard. it's Kid's Day. why cant we have a little fun? (maybe a hint of what is coming)

pray for me as i continue to prepare. pray that God's Word will fill my mouth and resonate from my heart. pray that people will see God in a whole new light this Sunday. pray that stagnant hearts will become renewed.
