Humble & Hungry

One of the many things I learned while serving under Pastor Tome Dawson at the South Tulsa campus was staying "Humble & Hungry." His repetition in saying this really worked on me, it will forever be etched into my mind. Those words pop into my mind (or more likely the Holy Spirit reminds me of them) at the most un-opportune times, again un-opportune for my fleshly side but perfect timing for what I should already be thinking. But what a great thing to strive towards every day!
I have never felt more humbled and hungry as I do right now. Humbled that God would allow me to be even a tiny part of all HE is doing at LifeChurch.tv and in the Broken Arrow community and more than that humbled that He is taking the time to change my heart and to slowly teach me how to live and serve a little more like Him.
I hope that it is very clear that I don't judge anyone else based on what He is doing in my life and where He has called me. He calls each of us differently and what He is doing in our lives is just where we are right now. There is so much more for us to learn and much further to grow. There are so many couples God has placed in our lives as examples and who are so much further down this road than us. I'm only sharing what He is doing in our hearts so our friends can be praying and for support for anyone else who may be feeling that tug on their heart that God is calling them to a little more :)

I have also never been more hungry! Hungry for more of God, more of His Word, more of His kind of service, and more of His grace and mercy! Because we all know that I need that daily!! I am hungry to serve our community, hungry for us and our leaders to BE the church and be meeting the needs around us! Hungry for an Isaiah 58 fast. Hungry for people who don't know Christ all over the Tulsa Metro area to feel a wave and rush of His amazing love and come to know Him! Ahh it gets me amped up!

This week I'm going to try to figure out some of the specifics of how we are going to truly follow where God is leading us and make it into practical steps, with Gods direction of course :) So be praying for us! Looking forward to sharing this journey with you all and looking forward to hearing from you guys who are Hungry for what God is doing in our community too!!
