Well today it became official, the pastor and the youth pastor at our church have left. Today was their last day at the church. It was a very emotional time after the service when the announcement was actually made. Given all the issues involved, it was not surprising that they were leaving, and I know that personally I have been pretty sure that they would be leaving for at least a month now, and I know I did a lot of greiving when I first found out what was going on. But knowing something is going to happen and having it happen are two very different things, as I found out today. I know what will probably be even harder will be going to church next sunday and not seeing them there, that will be when it really starts to sink in.
I know I will miss them terribly, I already do. But I also know that I will continue to see them, to talk with them from time to time, and continue to learn from them. Heck, even in this entire circumstance I have learned much from them. And I promise that I will not forget what they have taught me about Christ and God and what they have done for my relationship with Him. I also know that God has plans for them both, and I wish them the best in their continued ministry. And who knows what the future holds besides God?
