Father, so often I feel like the boy's father who first exclaimed, "I do believe!" then in a flood of sincerity cried out, "Help me overcome my unbelief!" -Mark 9:24
In a nutshell.....I have been feeling God's leading to do more ministry work and for years have sort of built upon this. God has placed many things for the fruition of this in my path--things I could have never accomplished without Him. So this year, it has been literally burning within me to do something....what I didn't know. But I knew it was something. So I began to search for what it could be...non-profit's, ministry positions within other vocations, etc and upon speaking with someone about an opportunity, he said..."you have your ministry work so why are you searching for something else to go into....sounds like you know what you need to do!" Wham...God may as well have hit me with a 2x4. Yes....I did/do know that God has been leading me to my current ministry work---Kneeling Bridge Ministries---visions that He has given me over the years to further my involvement with missions/medical missions.
Now for the fear issues: money, insurance, money, uhhh money....did i mention money? you get the picture....I am scared to death....how/should I form Kneeling Bridge Ministries as it's own corporation, how will I get paid...how much will I get paid.....will people & churches support me, am I crazy, all these things are swimming in my head and heart.
See the issue is that I want to work part-time or contract so I can have more free time to do ministry work and fund-raising....but I am scared to death of this.
so do I stay secure where I am, bored and feeling mediocre in Christ?????
I ask for your prayers----I want to know this is exactly what God wants me to do....although I KNOW this Lord!!! but please give me another sign.....and forgive me for asking again when I have heard you already.....comfort me...give me the courage & discernment to say the right things to the right people and Lord that this work out as YOU have planned!
