The Power of Monday’s

Jake Rasmussen | March 1, 2010 | 9:19 am

I am a secret fan of Monday’s.  As a pastor most of the time Mondays are really hard.  We are coming down from a high or even focusing on a low.  Let me explain that a bit.

A high would mean that attendance was high on Sunday, or it was a good offering, or even spiritually - Jesus did something amazing.  Salvation was professed, or sin was accounted for.

A low would mean that attendance was low, the sermon was flat, not that many people pitched in to help with various projects.  Repentance was preached but no one responded to the call of God.  Well, for whatever reason it was a low.

But, Monday!  Monday is a new day.  It is wide open to possibilities!  Great things can happen and so can bad things.  You can meet new people, creditors can call, you can get into a car accident, God can show you something new from his Word.

Whatever the case, I am a secret fan of Monday.  The possibilities are numerous.  My plan for this Monday is to go with the flow.  To be responsive to God’s Spirit when he calls.

What is your plan for this Monday?
