God has been using other people in ministry and seminary to encourage me in my desire to seek God's will for a place of ministry. They are encouraging me to keep seeking God's will for my life. Other ministry friends are reminding me that God will use me in ministry and God has a plan for my life. A former BYX brother in ministry encouraged me to keep serving at church and God will open up a door in his timing and he patiently serving in the church until God's timing. A pastor at Gateway church in the DFW area told me he served at the church for five years before he found a ministry job.
Also, my dad has a friend that is looking into connections for some job possibilities. A few other people in ministry are looking into possible ministry jobs for me. Lucas Paz and Bruce McCoy from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary are looking into connections for ministry jobs as well.
In summary, God is encouraging me through other people and reminding me that he will use me in ministry in his timing. God's timing is good, pleasing, and perfect. God has a plan for my life, I just have to wait for his leading. Proverbs 3:5-6, reminds us to trust God with all our circumstances and he will lead us where he wants us to go. I just have to trust that God knows what he is doing.
