Minister's Letter - May 2019

5/1/2019

0 Comments

 
Dear All,
​
Isaiah 40:27-31 is one of the most encouraging passages in Isaiah and reminds us that “He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”

The more my ministry develops and my spiritual eyesight gets closer to 20/20 vision, I see God working through our flaws just as much as our strengths. It is almost as if whatever happens to us, God can work through it for his purpose to be fulfilled.

A silly example is my memory. I am not alone I am sure in climbing the stairs, reaching the top and forgetting what I had come up for. My system of writing a post-it note at the bottom of the stairs to remind me at the top of the stairs what I wanted is not foolproof, however, in my rummaging and thinking of why I had come upstairs, I find the most amazing things that I would not have found normally.

Blessings,
Rev'd Martin Wheadon

    I have been ordained as a minister since 2001, working on my own and within a team. I was the minister at Gants Hill URC until 30th September 2021. I also have 34 years of banking behind me, during which I enjoyed developing teams and working to deadlines. Pastoral care, preaching, being alongside people and journeying with members of congregations on their spiritual journeys are my delights.
