Weekly Word: May 15th

Start Somewhere

We’ve just celebrated Mother’s Day and its back to the same old grind. The holiday has passed and we are back in the regular swing of life. We’ve honored our mother’s and payed more attention to them on that special day we set aside known as Mother’s Day. But now most of us haven’t spent that same effort to relate our gratitude and love as we did on the holiday.

Now obviously it’s not realistic to expect to be able to spend the same amount of time or even perhaps have a gift to present every day as we did on the Holiday. However, it doesn’t exempt us from showing our appreciation and expressing our love on a daily basis. I’m sure by now you can see where this is going; let’s take just a second to imagine what God must feel after a Sunday service… He might feel with some of us, a bit like Mothers do on their holiday, but then once the week begins wonders when we will spend that much time with Him again setting aside a specific moment to talk with and love on Him.

As the business of life returns and schedules start to fill up, we encourage you to start somewhere. Set aside specific times to spend with the Lord, letting Him know He is just as important to you today as He is on Sunday! Start with just a few moments a day to say I love you and talk with God.  He loves every minute with you regardless of how many, just start somewhere!

Psalms 16:8 I have set the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.
