Today was the first day Mike felt the reality of his upcoming career change. It's always been something that was going to happen in the future but with only two days left in his "local government" career, it finally felt real to him.
That could be because all of the loose ends that needed to be addressed at work and at home have been taken care of. Tonight's final service as part of Calvary Chapel East Anaheim's worship team also made an impact. Music is a big part of Mike's life and it's always been bittersweet to leave each of the musical groups in which he has played over the years.
A number of folks have asked him over the past few weeks how he felt about the prospect of not being able to play regularly. That's when he realized that this time around he doesn't have the same sense of "leaving something behind" as he has previously. In the past, he felt like he might never have the opportunity to be a part of a musical group ever again. This time, however, he realized that if God wants him to serve in that way sometime in the future, then it will happen. And if that's not part of His plan, that's okay too. There are more than enough other opportunities to serve Him if that's what He wants.
