Pastor Tim, I know that there are many things a pastor has to overcome, and trials he needs to persevere. As I prayed for your church I felt a sense of tension, perhaps within the elders over an issue that may seem petty, but involves great emotional attachment to someone involved. I pray that the Holy Spirit will give you great wisdom and discernment to help bring peace to the situation while bringing the focus on Christ and His calling for your church. I pray that you will see a great movement of God in your people in 2008, and that your own personal walk with Him will be deepened far beyond what you could have ever hoped for.
