hope and fear of congregational growth.

Upon entering a congregation and waiting and biding the time it takes to gain folks trust to lead in a new direction - my fear is that by the time that happens, I'll become assimilated to the community's sense of value and will no longer care to lead the changes I once thought so urgent.
Dear God, may your Word speak every fresh, in each new day. "Be not conformed to the thinking of this congregation, but be transformed by the renewing Spirit in your mind."
