How do you preach without a voice?
Dunno. But that's what happened today. My cold did not go away. I have a cough that will make ya cringe. And me and the lotion tissues box are never far away from each other...
Was it perfect? No. Was it the best I could give. Yeah, I think so. Did God's message get across? Judging from a couple of heart-to-heart chats afterwards... yes.
I didn't do this on my own. I have great mentors. I have the resources of an experienced teaching team who willingly share with me their knowledge and experience. And I'm still overwhelmed at the process of being bent, shaped, molded and used... and knowing that in my heart of hearts, what I managed to bring out (exegete, if you will) pleased God.
To my praying friends and family, blogging and non-blogging - thanks...
with a full heart...

Just like us die hards from the thea-tuh, preachers also may never ever give in to sickness!!!
God holds us all up and tables the coughs, fevers and agues long enough to send his messages.
You did reeeeeeeeal good. Now have a hot tea with lemon and honey and recline comfortably for a couple hours!
