In a funk...

I'm sorry for the lack of posting these last few weeks... I feel as if my whole world has been turned upside down lately - my time, my priorities, all of it - and it's not just baby excuses. I'm finally, yes finally, getting out of a slump. I'vebeen in a slump for the last year. My purpose in life, although present, just did not feel real. And I sit here today a newly encouraged and hopeful woman.
I have many passions - but one of the most prominate is my passion for arts to be used in a powerful way in the church.... I have not felt the freedom to use my gifts (and that passion) since taking my current job last May. The restriction wasn't placed on me by the church, however - it was my own fear. I've been a scared leader - and I'm not going to lead my teams scared anymore. I truly have been terrified of church becoming too showy... and I've felt that oh so gentle nudge from God just telling me to go for it - listen for his direction - and to take my teams to the place of creativity he desires. So watch out Crossroads and watch out world - I'm back in the game with a redidcation to my passions - and a new place of hope!
