No Easy Task...

One of the really neat... and scary... things about church planting is that you have to depend so much on God. The task is SO HUGE that at times it feels that you'll go under... their are more problems than apparent solutions, more needs than resources, more work to do than there are workers to do it...

"But God..."

As, my friend Shawn McBride likes to say, those are "two words that can change any situation!"

I'm in over my head, BUT GOD...
The enemy is busy, BUT GOD...
I don't know how we're gonna pull this off, BUT GOD...

See, He's the Solution to the problem, the Source behind the resources, the Strength to get the work done! It doesn't matter whether or not I'm in over my head, because... without Him... I couldn't pull it off anyway!

So, whatever success comes our way at Mosaic - and it will come - all the glory goes to Him!!

"Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think" (Ephesians 3:20).
