Daily Reading
This morning I am sitting in my family room in a recliner with a cup of coffee and I am content. It was a crazy week at church. We had an incredible week of Vacation Bible School and finished it off last night with a Back to School Carnival. There were so many people involved and it was an incredible undertaking. Yet, the church pulled together and showed the face of Jesus to the community.
For those reading this today, many of you know that we have been going through some changes at the church and doing a lot of reorganizing and visioning. It has been at times all consuming and at other times frustrating. Yet the readings today ( Psalm 130, Psalm 131) helped to remind me of something important.
Give them Jesus. It is that simple and for some reason I try to make it harder. At the end of the day what people need is to know that they matter and what people need to know is that God is with them. We just have to keep showing up and sharing joy, peace, and hope. This is what God is asking and this is what the world needs.
Simple.
