leaving on an airplane
September 17th, 2008 @ 7:10 am

this should be posting at 7:10 am CST on wednesday, which is the time my flight from nashville to oklahoma city will be departing. this is the first of many, many trips over the next six months.

i’ll be speaking (well, it’s more like leading a discussion) at ministrycom08 on thursday and friday on burnout…and i would love your prayers. i have said it a million times and i’ll say it again…the whole speaking thing makes me really nervous!

please pray that god will use this time to really bring an awareness of need to the people who listen…that we need to continually stay connected to him, that it’s okay to say no, and that if someone is burned out, that they’ll receive some wisdom about what to do.

it’s not a super fun creative topic, but it’s necessary and i am praying that god will use the information we present in a meaningful and unique way.

updates to follow…i’ll be updating my twitter frequently, i’m sure. so follow me if you’d like!

    Anne…it is 7:13 AM…so, you are sitting on the plane…having believed that your plane would actually leave at 7:10 AM…but, that never happens…

    So…I’ll wait about 10 minutes and REALLY pray for you as you take off!

    I know you’ll be awesome - you are naturally fun and engaging (thanks for your time on Sunday, btw! :-) ) no matter what the topic is…
    We’ll pray for safety and strength in all your travels. Peace.
