I told my good friend this at church yesterday (Sunday).... I fight lots of fires every day in my real estate business. It almost seems like every real estate transaction have its own set of "challenges". Some easier to deal with than others. But all in all, there's always some "challenges" to deal with.
I dont get to "clear out" my mind often. I'm a "thinker" and a planner. I see a few steps down the road before I get there. My mind does not stop, even when I'm sleeping!
But once a week, when I "worship", it is quite honestly, the only time I'm awake, that I don't think about anything else but the Lord. It is an emergence experience that I can only be at, where the world around me can fall apart, anyone's real estate transaction falling out, it didn't matter.
It's a moment of peace and gratefulness. It's my once a week where I can completely feel his presence, in that auditorium and to worship with the rest of my church family.
I felt it again yesterday at our newest satellite location. Hope Fellowship is now open in the West campus (off FM 423/ Main Street) in Frisco.
It is a place where I am happy. I know there will always people there who loves me for whom I am. Not the Realtor behind my name.
Hope Fellowship - One Church, 3 Locations (Frisco East, Frisco West and McKinney)!
Then, I realized I really need to recharge more often. I've always heard about the "Sabbath" and how you must rest at least one day of the week. I know that. But never quite experience it.
Yesterday was the first time, I truly realized the importance of "resting".
But did I rest? Not yet. I was going back and forth with my seller in Argentina, a language barrier and the need for him to understand "how we do things around here".
But at least I've been exposed to the need of making sure the importance of Rest.
