FINAL Break Blog!! “What to do when your pants fall off at work.” *Pictures Included*

Well, here it is, my last Break Blog!!

So there I am at work in my green apron behind the register enthustiastically greeting each customer, giving them the speed and focus that they expect as they give me their unique drink order.

…”Hello, how are you today? What could I get started for you?” “Can I have an Iced venti nonfat halfcaf quadshot caramel machiato stired with light ice?” “Sure! anything else for you?”…

I quick ran over to mark the cup, we were right in the middle of the morning rush as I stepped on the seam of my pants and unwraveled the thread. This started an irreversable process of the seam of my pants coming undone on the outside seam of my right pant leg. First about 4 inches, then 8inches, then up to my knee, before I knew it as I was rushing to get coffees and getting pastries the entire right pant leg was ripped on the outer seam 3/4 the way up my white thigh! My coworkers were doubled over behind the espresso machine pointing and laughing at my misfortune. one sugested I staple my pants together. And so I did:

Keep in mind this actually happened at work! In public! I was running around with stapled pants on my second to last day!

HA HA HA! Some stories I will never forget. This has been an amazing season for me full of intimacy with God and a sweet hiddenness. A time where the Lord really spoke about my identity being in his word and love for me, and not in my ministry fruitfulness and image as a leader. I would sing to the Lord songs while at work, pray for my coworkers and dream about the future. This led to me being a bit distracted sometimes! But over all I did my best in my practical duties as well. I don’t have to many profound thoughts to really sum up this season other than I can say that God is so good and our sucess is not in our ministry titles but in our love for God. You could be the most obscure person on earth while being the most renowned in heaven. I am sure that is most often the case.

Keep blazing in Love for Jesus with where ever he calls you! There is profound intimacy to be had right in this season of your life! Right now! Thanks for following me on my starbucks journey! Now, its time for the next adventure: Fire and Fragrance Harrisburg…
