that we understand that will, then there are those that we never expect it
from. It says in, *Psalms 118:8 It is better to trust in the Lord Than to
put confidence in man.* When we have people that we need to take care of
us, our physical, emotional, and our spiritual needs, and they don't, we
feel disappointment and heartbreak. When it comes from the leadership in a
church, that makes it even more painful. We are the Body of Christ, what
are we suppose to do then? Many people leave one church body and go to
another in hopes of finding what they long for, some just leave altogether
and go back into the world. Then there are some that bear down and just
love the people where they are, in whatever capacity they can. For those
that feel that they have been lost or abandoned by man, I want you to know,
that you have NOT been lost or abandoned by God. He is always at work,
working on your heart and the hearts of the shepherds over you. Only One
man was perfect, Jesus. May we pray for those over us that are leaders, to
have sound doctrine, good wisdom and direction, and a love for the body
that is the example of Christ love for the church. May the pastor's
remember, that ministry is for the outcome and not the income.
