okay maybe GOD didn't tell me to do anything
on november 1st i wrote about the fact that a couple of people who had agreed to help out with an event later told me that GOD had told them that they weren't supposed to be a part of the retreat. at the time i actually knew that they wanted to be a part of our college ministry's tailgate party at the l.s.u. v. ole miss football game. well, a small problem developed - i.e. rain - and the tailgate party was canceled.
interestingly enough these two individuals suddenly came to me asking if they could now be a part of the retreat again. interesting how GOD will changed after the other event was canceled.
i just wish that had be honest in the beginning and said "i really want to go to the tailgate party." i would have been fine with that. we can always find more leaders. i learned a long time ago that no one, including myself, is indispensable. GOD always provides someone else who can and probably will do a better job. GOD provided the leaders we needed for the retreat. in fact, he forced me to use two people who i hadn't planned on using. of course, these two people ended up being the two best leaders of the weekend. they were amazing.
