stupid or guided ?????

I had the privilege of filling in for our pastor this morning - along with a lot of support from God and friends. Anyway, when I set out to develope a message, I mis-read the good ol' lectionary and did a message on David and Goliath that was either a year early or a year late, but not the "proper" one for this particular Sunday. Anyway, the main thrust of the message was about how God empowers us - the little guys.

On Friday, out of the blue, and after putting my message to bed, I got an envelope in the mail. In the envelope was the little slip of paper I filled out on the last day of our walk. On that slip of paper were words about "God's empowering us."

I felt a bit less stupid about the Scripture "I" had chosen, and a little more confidant in my task.
