last year some time i learned a valuable lesson that helped loosen the grip of pressure that seemed to hold tight and haunt me... whether we would like to admit it or not, numbers seem to ALWAYS hit somewhere in the equation that ultimately points to success? personally... especially more lately, numbers are increasingly having a weaker gravitational pull for me when i measure success.
YES... numbers DO measure something... just NOT sure what it is.
all that to say, the lesson i learned was that there are different seasons of ministry as there are different seasons of life. the month of may is a TOUGH ministry season... well at least for us it is. i have to come to grips that for us may, may always be a tough ministry season. there is way too much going on.
so... cheer up... things will pick up.

Ah, the Merry Month of May; the season of hope and renewal. A time to rediscover love and life and all it's possibilities.
It is also a time of many passings, strangely enough.
However May finds you, whether up or down, it becomes magnified in all the potentialities of May.
