The Introduction

     This is my personal diary depicting my frustrations associated with my experience in ministry from January 1980 until now May 2011, from a Jeremiah perspective.  As you read this book you will find out how much truly chosen, not just called leaders have to endure to become all that God wants them to be.

     Through this book leaders will come to know the furnace of affliction and rejection, which is a place not appreciated by many who are chosen to fulfill the highest calling among men.   The frustrations of the chosen are necessary experiences designed not to break us but drive us to a place of dissatisfaction.  This dissatisfaction causes us to run to God with a passionate fire that trials, tribulations and death itself can't quench or put out.

     Through this book you will come to understand that our frustrations and aggravations are necessary annoyances that will bring out the best in us and not the worst if the process of God's choosing is honored.  God's ways are not our ways and our thoughts are not Gods thoughts and that's something we tend to forget in the midst of challenging trials.  Endure hardness, don't faint.

     Through this book you will see how the obsessions in life by those who have been called disqualify them from being chosen.  The distractions we call accomplishments and great victories are personal hangmen nooses. We create these nooses by allowing our accomplishments to take the place of personal ministry and Christ centered accountability.

     This book will be an easy read because it cuts out the chase and takes you straight to the point.  In this book you will find my personal frustrations, personal notes, and scripture references. Read with an open heart and the Holy Ghost will illuminate your mind and enlarge your capacity to believe God.

Let Me Testify For All Leaders, Pastors In Particular...

   

     If you are perfectly honest you have been there, alone in your quiet place bewildered, frustrated and confused about why this is happening to you.  You are totally, completely, absolutely sold out to your ministry and you are struggling.  The results you envisioned for the ministry is not happening, why?

     In your solace you are wondering what more must I do to achieve the Lord's highest expectations for my life?  But at the same time you are saying to the Lord will you please help me before I mess up something and bring a reproach up on your name.  Then too often, we're disappointed when God doesn't respond to our efforts in the way we'd hoped.   We say things like why is it the Lord is not responding to my pure intentions?

     If you are a Pastor and/or leader and you "Love the Lord" with all your heart you know you yearn to be more fruitful and productive, but at the same time you are frustrated with the results you are now experiencing.  What you want to happen is not happening fast enough and there is a reason for your frustrations and some of them are exposed and explained in the book. 

     As you read this book, read it with the intent of discovering, confessing and eliminating your frustrations so you can move on and be productive in ministry and life.  The book is an easy read and it is kind to the eyes.  So find a comfortable spot to read and get ready to have your mind illuminated by the excitement of being able to begin again.
