Here is a simple step in helping you to more effectively communicate your vision. This is pretty specific but it’s something only you can develop.
DON’T BE SECRETIVE
Too many people are afraid to share what God has shown them. In Habakkuk 2:2 we see to “…write the vision and make it plain…” But it goes on to say that the purpose in putting it down in writing was not only to make it plain but so it could be shared with others. The Living Bible Translation says… “Write My answer on a billboard, large and clear, so that anyone can read it at a glance and rush to tell others.” Now please understand that I am not a huge fan of the Living Bible. I hope this doesn’t mean we can’t be friends. But I do like this particular verse idea. Make it plain so others can read it and tell others. Don’t let your ministry be the best kept secret in the church. Be bold and ready to share what’s been happening in your ministry – remember, what happens with your kids’ ministry is because of God, so don’t be afraid to let others in on what God is doing with the children.
I’ll have another idea later – keep smilin’
Man, you would not believe how much I have needed this kind of advice. I have been thinking and praying so much recently about clearly knowing my vision and the vision that God has for me and the ministry he has entrusted me with. Even hundreds of miles away you are still a great mentor.
