Sometimes You Need to Weigh Your Options
Sometimes You Need To Weigh Your Options
By Pastor Chip Woodall
It is early Wednesday morning in Millersburg, Ohio, and I am still recovering from an injury to my right eye, amidst the third Christwalk Outreach to Killbuck Village this summer. The accident happened last Thursday evening when a piece of concrete broke off of a bird bath and in a crazy way, hit me square in the eye. The force of the blow caused a tear in my retina, a hemorrhage to the eyeball and high levels of pressure. After emergency surgery Friday, I realized just how valuable good eye sight is for daily functional needs. And, God was still faithful, making the way for me to accomplish all the scheduled ministry.
Sometimes you have to weigh your options in a situation. Many people suggested I stay home, cancel the rehearsal and wedding I was scheduled to do and absolutely, not fly to Ohio. Donna and I decided to stand on Psalm 91 and trust God, proceeding with the normal ministry activities as scheduled.
On this side of all the trauma, the retina is repaired and several medicated eye drops continue to go in my eye thanks to Nurse Gail Heaton. The team is nearly finished with this Killbuck Outreach, and we have once again helped the elementary school and reached more new students and families in the Village.
Tonight at Kidz Club at the Duncan Theater, we will distribute school supplies to all students who come see us. We will also give new and nearly new clothes to all students through our clothing outreach. Everything will be available tonight from 6-7 pm at the Duncan outside on the sidewalk. If it rains, we will move it inside…so rain or shine.
I am so glad I decided to come. Our team has helped me remember not to bend over or pick up anything that weighs more than 10 pounds. The kids attending camp have laughed about my eye patch. And light duty helped me freshen up on copying and laminating skills at the school, while our team painted walls, basketball goals, shelves and rails.
Camp three will end tomorrow with 17 more students having been loved on. A total of 32 students this summer between three camps and the weekly kids club.
Killbuck will continue to be on the Christwalk radar. Plans are underway to consider Upward Basketball and Cheerleading this Winter. Kidz Club will continue to meet every Wednesday Night at the Duncan Theater from 6-7 pm.
