The End of an Era

For the last 10 + years, I have worked at a large church in Houston. I have gone to work, day in and day out, and have gone to church there as well. I have seen lots of changes, some for the better and some for the worse. My job description has changed many times over the years. And I've seen many people come and go.

Yesterday, I said goodbye to all of my friends at work. It feels funny to think that I won't be going back to work there next week. I felt like the end of an era has happened. But I also know that as sad as this is to me (and to other people as well), that life will go on. I may not be there to answer the questions and be the "know-it-all" (the person who has all of the answers), but I know that somehow, somewhere, someone will have the answers. It may not be as quick as it has been, but the answers will come.

I'm scared to be starting a new job after 10 years, but I know that God has brought this to me for a reason. I'm scared of disappointing my new employer, and I'm afraid of disappointing God. But I know that God has given me this opportunity and He will not have given me this opportunity if He didn't think I can handle it. So, I put my faith in God and will allow Him to work through me in this new job.

So here's to my new job. Pray that I will do a great job and that I won't disappoint anyone.
