"A man's gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men." Prov. 18:16
In June of 1977 my wife and I were launched from Prescott to take over the church in Chandler, AZ. Thus began our almost 20 year venture in trying to be a pastor. This finally ended in 1994 when we gave up and moved back to Prescott.
If a man's gift makes room for him then are we to understand that the lack of room means there is no gift?
There comes a point when more praying and more fasting and more outreach and more study do not change the outcome and you have to face facts as they are.
The good news is that all things work for good and enduring to the end is still important.
