My first job out college, using my degree, was that of a local TV news producer in Savannah, Ga. It was incredible and I wouldn't take it back, for I learned many important lessons along the way and made real friendships.
But after a while I realized that I was physically being weighed down by the world’s problems as a result of the demands of that job. Daily shootings, gruesome child abuse cases, hurricanes and of course Covid all made their way into my mind and I had a constant notion that I had to do something about ALL of it.
Of course, none of this was true and by God's grace he brought to my attention my obsession over these things and reminded me, over time, that I need only tend what was given to me. Why would I stress about overcoming the world when Christ has already done so?
Praise be to God.
Glad to be doing more digging into the Dispatch. Good work, gents.
