How to Leave a Church Well

How to leave a church well:There's much more to it than this, but this might be the main thing.Walk into the church auditorium and find that place where you got on your knees 4 years ago on your first day on the job.That spot of carpet under the big cross.Go to that spot and get on your knees again.Survey the big cross above you, just like you did before.Pray, praising God for the prayers he answered from 4 years ago.Give God all the glory, all the credit.Be amazed at all he has done.Thank him for his faithfulness, his kindness, his lavish generosity.Smile as you pray.Then entrust to his care the people that have been under your care.Then tell him how desperately you need vision and help from above for the new adventure ahead.Decide to trust him for it.Then get up and walk away.Next, turn in your key and your final paperwork, then drive home.Get up early the next morning and take your family on a long vacation in a far away place.At least that's what I just did/what I'm doing.
