Summer Rhythms
June is a time for transitions. It serves as an entranceway into summer, which has its own schedule and unique feel.
Graduations, vacations, visits with family and friends… It’s important to allow ourselves to get away and to move at a different pace after the commitments and responsibilities of autumn, winter, and spring.
As religious people, we like our rhythms of Sunday worship and fellowship, studies and meetings. The predictability helps us to feel secure.
However, a break from our routine is good for our spiritual life. Pausing our busyness helps us to be more fully aware of the presence of God. I invite you to be intentional about taking time for rest and silence over the next few months. Be on the lookout for beauty in nature. Breathe deeply and allow the Spirit to guide you toward new ways of thinking, feeling, and being.
Peace,
Pete
