I am a double preacher's kid so I am not ignorant to the ways of the church. I have seen my both of my parents, as my mother puts it, "preach the hell out" of their people. I haven seen their insecurities and doubts about a sermon and I have always thought that I would not need the people to let me know whether or not I preached a good sermon. And I suppose I don't. I know when I did a good job. I did a good job last week. Two weeks before that I kicked ass. I know this.
I don't need accolades but I admit I suppose I thought I would see a change. Maybe its just arrogance. I like to think I am planting seeds but I am left wondering if I am being understood or just making a lot of noise. Hmmmmm...I suppose I should just let God handle the part of reaching people and I just continue making a joyful noise to the lord?
