I'm feeling pulled strongly in at least two directions these days. After the CCDA Institute classes in Dallas last month, I came home totally convicted and pumped up to change my efforts at ministry to the poor. I saw that I had been focusing on "betterment" ministry, not "development" ministry that I really wanted to do. But, after a flurry of discussions and soul-searching, I have slipped right back into the easier, comfortable role of "giver of hand-outs", rather than being the incarnational "minister of hand-ups."
OK, here's my (slightly) public confession and statement of intent to change, again.
LORD, help my unbelief!
