It's amazing how quickly November 10, 11 & 12, 2011 flew by... As with any large event, so much time and preparation goes into the conference, and then when the time comes for it to happen, it seems to fly by in the blink of an eye.
I do my best prior to every event that we produce to be well prepared, to have my ducks in a row, to make sure all the T's have been crossed and I's have been dotted. But it never fails... something happens to throw a wrench into the cogs of the wheel. There's always something... and there's always chaos at the top of any event... meeting the needs of all the registrants, exhibitors, artists and clinicians... dealing with production issues, dealing with transportation issues, dealing with lodging issues... it's all a part of the game... but regardless - at the end of the day - when all is said and done... God is glorified... and God is moving... and God is reigning...
This is a just a reminder for me to keep my eyes trained above. In the midst of chaos, I'm reminded to raise my head and lift my eyes, and give thanks to God who allows this craziness in my life so that I might give glory to Him. He is my sustainer, my provider, my reason...
So, even when needs are not met, equipment fails, flights are delayed... God is still God. It's all for Him, and He is glorified.
My hope and prayer is that our little celebration is pleasing to Him. My hope and prayer is that our desire to equip and provide resources to the modern Levites is pleasing to Him. My hope and prayer is that folks who attend are blessed.
Much love to everyone who joined us at CMS Northwest 2011.
Matt
