God of Wonders...

So, today was a great day. I was a little tired thanks to a lack of sleep but it was all good in the end!

I got to help out with the downtown campus of our church. I ran the ProPresenter and also helped to train one of the young guys on how to run everything. It was a different "feel" from St. Andrews campus since it was a lot smaller and only one service but I enjoyed it. It feels more of a mellowed out and kind of "chill" vibe. The band was acoustic style almost which I thoroughly enjoyed. But with communion being today, things got out of timing. But, I realize now, that God had timed it perfectly, and we just didn't know it

What I love about those situations is that even if you freak out for a second, you soon realize that there is a reason given by God to relax and know He is in control of everything. I've learned over years of working with technology in the church setting that when you freak out, things just get worse for you over time. But, keeping faith in the Lord and knowing that He plans out everything is awesome

For example, today instead of running a song as planned, we allowed for communion to run longer, and had a small prayer time. Was this planned? Not by the worship team or any of the people running the show. But God had it planned and He saw it fit for more prayer and more interaction with leaders and church members during communion

Overall, I'm just refreshed at how God is moving in this campus downtown. Is it as put together and "well oiled" as the St. Andrews one? No way! But you know what? I really think that God is doing something big through our church and it's campuses. I'm quite excited to see what happens in the near future
