Good day at work.  Our “Choice” teams met in Franklin at Scarlett Leadership Center for some goal setting.  Then Norman, Glenn, and I met with the Board HR Committee Chair to review a full slate of Benefits Recommendations, in preparation for a full HR Committee Meeting on Monday.  Both events went well.  In earlier similar meetings, Glenn would brag on me and Carolyn to the rest of the assembly, kind of the halo effect–newest kids on the block, about how lucky the Mission is to have us, etc.  It’s been over a year now, and he continues to do this.  I’m so pleased that he feels this way, but it reminds me of high school when my teachers would commend me to the class and it made me wonder if the rest of the class would resent me.  In truth, I do a good job there, and I have a lot of great experience and knowledge and wisdom to offer.  However, I am indeed the lucky one to be working around so many selfless saints.  I am only being obedient and taking advantage of a God-sent opportunity.  Perhaps they are as well, but they have devoted their lives to this work to the detriment of their own physical and financial well-being, and I am just a relative new-comer.  I can’t brag on my co-workers enough.  Thank you Jesus for making the way.
