Mighty, Mighty Rankin!

Some of you may remember an earlier post which encompassed my views on Small Group leading for the Christian Union (if you do I will be very impressed; not many people remember anything I write and therefore this would make a pleasant change). If not let me refresh your memories:

"At the end of the term, I was asked by one of my hall group leaders whether I wanted to pick up the reins as regards hall group leading. At first this really did appeal to me, as it would give me more time to study God’s word and to really devout some time to Him. However, after really praying about it, I decided that I should focus my time and efforts elsewhere. This was a really tough decision, as I wanted to make sure that I was doing what God had told me, not what I wanted to do. Another complication was the fact that if I did accept the responsibility of Hall group leading, I wouldn’t be able to move into a house; something which was really set on my heart...more details on housing explained below.Anyway, that’s really all there was to it; some hard praying, some peoples opinions and some more praying. If I’m honest I still can’t believe I’m not doing it, but for now I think it’s the right decision; though who knows what the future will bring!!”

Well like I said, who knows what the future brings! God in all his wisdom decided not to let me get off of the hook that easily and last night I went to my first SLOB’s- “Small-group leaders’ only Bible studies”. For all of you, (whom I could probably count on one finger as my site isn’t, contrary to popular belief that popular) who don’t know what SLOB’s is, I will give you a quick summery: - extra Bible classes for Small group leaders.

If you hadn’t already guessed have actually decided to become a Small Group leader in Rankin Hall next year; this meant that I had to leave my original group in town, which was gutting, as I have some really good friends there. However, I realised that it was the Lord’s will for me to be in Rankin, so I am excited about the future; only He knows what will happen.

That’s really all I had to say; not as thought provoking as other posts I know but hey I’m only human… will update in the near (ish) future. Until then,

Take Care and God Bless
