I lead the prayers at my home church yesterday. It was a bit of a strange experience, to be honest. Leading worship feels so right for me, but it's different at my home church as to some of the congregation I will always be wee Mrs Gerbil (that just sounds so wrong!). Others, I know, don't approve of people other than a minister leading worship. Fortunately, both of those groups of people are in the minority.
It's a very supportive congregation and they've constantly been asking my Mum and hubbie how I'm getting on. One very favourable comment I received yesterday was "to the manor born". I was very humbled by this and the other good comments as I know all I do, am, say comes from God. I'm just at the beginning of my journey to ministry, yet I already feel the growth. I felt I was leading worship at my home church in a way I hadn't really before. That is a testament to what my local assessor taught me and my walk with God.
God is truly preparing the way ahead for me on my journey. My call to serve and lead a community of His people. I need not be afraid.
