So, anyone who's spent time in a church, or any organization for that matter, will know that politics is unfortunately inevitable. Sometimes the bureaucracy required to run a church makes me so crazy I could just scream. There are times that personality clashes or miscommunications can divide whole churches.
But then there are times where all that junk gets stripped away, and God reveals himself in an astounding way. This weekend has been God revealed.
26 middle and high school girls delved deeply into understanding what God has to say about our beauty. No girl walked out of this weekend unchanged. God reached these girls in ways that were written in the truth in their eyes, no words were necessary. It was an honor to be a part of.
Sometimes serving in a church is hard. Sometimes I ask myself why I keep running in circles. But this weekend reopened my eyes. Why do I do this?
This is why: So 26 girls can see the love of their Maker.
