Vision Becoming Reality
Posted by admin | Filed under Church, Church Planting, Cloverleaf Church, Leadership
I look back on my life and if you would have told me 2 years ago that I would be following God’s calling to start a new church in Rome, GA then I would have laughed at you, and slapped you in the face…
I remember (vividly) the steps and process of turning a chaotic jumble of thoughts of what I thought a church plant should look like…I would lay awake at night thinking “this will go there and we’ll do things this way…” It’s actually pretty sad that I really thought my way was the way things would get done…Knowing what I know now it’s all about how God wants things done…in His time and done His way. Already Cloverleaf Church has morphed into a vision that I could have never dreamt of in my wildest dreams and that vision is quickly becoming a reality.
It’s one thing to talk about…even put it down on paper…it’s something completely different to act on those thoughts and take steps of faith the ensure what happens lines up with God’s vision. That’s EXACTLY where Cloverleaf Church is right now. We’ve got the location nailed down, we’ve ordered business and invite cards, we’ve set dates for some of our first Informational Meetings, we’re preparing to be a part of the 4th of July celebration, we’re making contacts in the community…and people are getting excited…getting excited about the vision for a church less concerned with getting people there and more concerned with SERVING people where they are. People are getting PUMPED…and every day I hear news that more and more people are buying into this vision and committing to be a part of this movement.
To be here…after years of praying, work, planning, classes, meetings, and more work, and more work…to be on the threshold of this thing that God has been orchestrating from Day 1…to see this vision becoming a reality SO MUCH quicker than I ever thought it could…is simply breathless. I truly felt like Peter standing there…looking down at the sea…thinking “you want me to walk on that water…not so sure I can do that.” But I said OK…not sure if I was going to sink or not, but knowing that no matter what happened Jesus had my back…He’s never given me more than I can handle and this won’t be any different…
So I’m standing here on the threshold…watching each day bring a new element to life from this vision…absolutely scared out of my mind…definitely sure that I can’t do this, but even more sure that Christ can do this through me…
So come on…join in and watch this UNBELIEVABLE vision become a reality with us…connect up with Cloverleaf Church if you live in the greater Rome area…I promise you it’s something you won’t want to miss being a part of because the payoff is so much better than playing it safe!
