When a person is carrying their sin, it can be quite a load...I don't know what else to do with your sin but confess and ask God to forgive it.
God has been preparing me for what God had prepared for me.
Most people don't have someone to believe in them.
The blessing of influence is helping others succeed. It is lifting up Christ with your established platform.
If you know what you got and like it, be reluctant to leave it.
As a pastor our main ministry is exhortation.
