This is really good and inspirational. I think we need to continue to keep our spiritual leaders and ministry volunteers in thought and prayer. We often expect them to be perfect and we forget they are of the flesh and are subject to make mistakes and may take the wrong road just the way e eryone else does or they may not be able to respond to the need of everyone at the time and in the way they may want. This message, Darren, is moving and can help inspire someone faced with a depletion of an inner spirit and motivation. Very good.
