Seek God!

 

Summer time is here and many of you will be taking vacations while we gather for worship. Now you may want to take a vacation from the job, from household duties, from the neighborhood, but don’t take a vacation from God. I encourage you if you are on vacation to try a different worship experience on Sunday morning. It may be around a campfire at a national park, or on the beach near your hotel, or maybe go to church with the relatives you are visiting. Each community which belongs to Christ has something to teach us. Spend a moment in prayer as you climb out of that bed that is not your own. 

 

Summer is a more relaxed time with some jobs. Perhaps you have time to read your Bible more in depth. Or perhaps catch up on that Christian book you have been meaning to read. Or become involved building a house with Habitat for Humanity. Or simply make the time to walk at lunch in a place where you can admire God’s creation. 

 

Seek God! God is more than ready to be found, than we are sometimes to seek God. And God shows up in the most bizarre places. 

 

Come back from vacation ready to tell others where you have seen God in new and different ways. Be ready to be touched by creation, by the beauty human hands have made, by courage others have in living their lives. Talk and walk with God as you cross over to see what lies beyond the horizon. Summer is a time for God!
