often times the seemingly mundane can provide a great deal of insight

Networking... why do I like it?


I have been trying to figure this out over the past month. Initially I find it odd that something such as networking would cause me the joy that it does. As I have thought it over more I am beginning to see some reasons why. Networking in ministry is a beautiful thing. It is tracking patterns and resources and seeing how they can fit together in order to benefit all parties involved. It is like solving a puzzle, but needing to hunt for the pieces first. What's more, is that it is looking at the most uniquely beautiful and complex pieces of God's creation. People. When everything is said and done, I get to work with people. People are miraculous. With every person you meet, you are able to experience a wonder of God's creative power. When you get to combine these masterpieces and they build unity, the result is brilliant. With every person I meet, I get to experience an aspect of God that I could have otherwise missed out on.
