God at work
Sorry for the delay. CPE this week has stood for "Crucified Practically Everyday." It is pretty painful, especially when presenting your own goals. (More about that when I can see the light of day.) A lot has happened this week. Goal presentations, weekly reports, and conversations with patients to name a few. But there's definitely something of which I'm coming to a deeper understanding. As our entire CPE group presented our goals for the summer, I was struck by the fact that personally, this summer is about becoming more comfortable with who we are, with who we know ourselves to be. I have a small problem with that. If God is continually transforming us into the likeness of His Son, then are we ever comfortable with who we are?

Well, you raise an interesting question. I'll be interested to see if you think about it again in eight or nine weeks.
The first and most basic tool with which God equipped you for ministry is you - body, mind, spirit, personality, and all. CPE is about learning more about the tool and about how the took works best in ministry, and especially in pastoral ministry. To a certain extent, it's about learning how to learn, and so how to get better over time at what you do. I think you'll do fine.
And, anyway, you are a professional - or, at least, you're prepared to profess something, aren't you?
