Seek God? What? Do we know what that means? (Just kidding) What a brilliant idea, yet so simple. It is impossible to please everyone (and hard not to try to please everyone to keep the peace), but who's aproval are we seeking? I hope the Lord is pleased above all. SEEK GOD, AMEN!

And shame to those men that never tried to mentor them and quite possible found great enjoyment in their failure. Many of us have witnessed such acts. Larry you have done a wonderful job of remaining confessional in your walk. This is not only going to be a wonderful blessing to you (I think you grasp that already), but has without a doubt blessed, encouraged, and even mentored others to embrace God. Embracing more like the lost authentic ways of the early Church. God has chose a wonder broken vessel to minister through.

As you said it is difficult to see God’s glory as a victim, so so true. The beauty is that once we do seek God, turning our pain over to Him we get to a very special place with Him. I feel in my heart that the depth of that special place is only obtainable when we are broken and ready to submit. This has really helped me tonight process my life. Thanks for sharing.

Usually we become down, depressed and such when you are not God-centered. When we place ourselves before Him we are given great conviction. So those in leadership should feel strong and confident if they are obedient to God. Just how I see it. In all my years I've never felt discourage or overwhelmed.
