The Spirit's in the Details

Hello, friends!

 

I love new ideas, big dreams, and visions.  I love seeing ideas, dreams, and visions come to reality.  I love being able to look back and know that God's will started as a seed-thought and grew into a Kingdom project.  However, there are little things that get in the way of ideas, dreams, and visions becoming reality.  More like a million little things.  We call them details.  Their reputation precedes them.  We say that the Devil is in the details.  However, when I think of small groups, I think otherwise.  It is not the Devil; it is God's Spirit.  The Spirit's in the details. 

 

As a small group leader, host or supporter, you know the details that go along with small groups: Constant emails, phone calls, invites; books to order, DVDs to watch; passages to look up.  Small groups make details.  But it is in these small activities that God's Spirit can so often be found.  The Spirit can make prep time a blessed time.  The Spirit makes even mundane communication blessed communication.  The Spirit makes phone calls signs of care and concern. 

 

Thanks for the consistent ministry you give in the details.  I pray God's Spirit make himself present to you in those times!

 

As always, I am here to listen and encourage. 

 

Grace and peace,

 

Aaron
