Psalms 139: 7-8

7. Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence?

8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, you are there

Absolutely an audience of one-
In all things, giving honor and glory to God!

Not only are you preaching to just a few folks on Sunday..." Yeah...or maybe just preaching to one deaf old man in an outdated native mission building that will be burned down a few weeks later (just down the road from us, the pastor being a neighbour). Audience size never negates calling. That's the core philosophy of WMBC, incidentally. "Ours is just to find our obedient place in His grand scheme. If yours is writing, write to the glory of the audience of one. You can have no higher calling and no greater readership, published or not." ...and as I said to RedRay earlier this week, if all I've ever written for others' eyes is a blog, when all's said and done, it would be enough. I'm honoured to be in the place where I am, and I'm in love with what God's given me at Scienda...which I started in order to write to no one and for nothing but my true convictions and passions purely as God's given them to me. For years, my counterpoint to your "audience of one" motto has been "people are the only thing you can take with you to heaven." I suppose it's more communications-oriented, rather than devotional, but put the two together and between us I think we've got the Great Commandment and a second that's like it, eh, BT? :-) Eyes on what matters, always. There's much to smile about. “It’s the same for the preacher with a small congregation. Not only are you preaching to just a few folks on Sunday…”
