Fixin to do Something
“I have been part of churches that are always trying to get organized to do something, what we love about Spring Hill is that you all are always doing something and then trying to get organized.” This comment came to me recently as I was discussing Spring Hill with someone new to the church. I thought the comment was pretty insightful!!!
We all have plans for our life. Since our life includes the church we have plans for that as well. The challenge we face is turning our plans into action. To go from “fixin to do something” to doing something! We tend to want to wait for everything to be right and then we will proceed.
Let me challenge you to read through the book of Acts and witness the Holy Spirit leading the church to action. Then let the Holy Spirit lead you to do something!

We were just talking about this in our small group! In 200 Pomegranates and an Audience of One, the author talks about getting stuck in a holding pattern and the reasons we procrastinate. It’s encouraging to be around people who are not just talking about doing something but are actually making an impact.
