It's Monday! ( or maybe not . . . )

You’re listening to Trusting God At All Times, A daily devotional from Peakland UMC. My names is Linwood Campbell and, I’m the Director of Worship and Outreach.

It’s Monday, although you may not be listening to this on a Monday, its’s Monday none the less. Now you may think, ugh, it’s Monday, but I think - it’s Monday! That means it’s a whole new week of opportunities to learn and grow, to plan and implement, to just experience life!

Since the pandemic started, I have dived into video production in a major way. I seen it done in the past and have actually contributed to video productions at other times in other churches. But not like this. As the old saying goes, it’s been like drinking from a fire hydrant. It’s been an incredible learning experience and each week I learn continue to learn new things. I watch other churches and I watch people who have successful Youtube channels. Sometimes I learn how to do things, and sometimes I learn how not to do things hahaha. But I learn, none the less, I learn.

So what’s the point of telling you all this? Well, it’s Monday. For me, it’s a new opportunity to learn and grow - to listen and watch - to hear God’s word and music. And to share all of that with you. I guess I am blessed to be able to have this opportunity. No guessing about it, really, I am blessed in so many ways. To have a family, to have a church, to have a church family. And to have a living God who cares about me.

It’s Monday. Or whatever the day of the week you may be listening to this. It’s another new week full of opportunities for you. Learn and grow. Be thankful for what you have.
