Reflection:
Prayer and fasting has led me to five days of fasting, prayer and off all communications. It has reset my brain, my sleep patterns and helped me refocus on what really matters. The Truth of the Gospel reading from
authors including Tom Wright, Joyce Meyer, Andy Stanley, Steven Furtik, Athanaeous, St Ignatius and of course the Bible first. From Old and New Testament to Moody and NRSV commentaries I have read more than in my first week of seminary! It blew open space for the Holy Spirit to breath and help me to build new habits, but do you know what it didn’t do? It didn’t change the need for you and I to spread the Word of God, which is alive and active and sharper than any double edged sword!
As we prepare for the Fall, yes it’s almost here, as we return to school, yes almost here, and a more daily routine and rhythm of life let us create more intentional space for time with God. The battles we face today are real and the come thick and fast. We need to stand firm, not be silent and be proud of the God who saves us, redeems us and loves us. So rather than remain silent, not speak to our fellow Brothers and Sisters of the Faith and let us fix our eyes on Jesus in our communities and those around the world. Let us get back in contact with old friends, pick up old devotionals and renew our prayer life with the Lord.
Wherever you are in your faith today, be reminded you are never alone and Jesus loves you. Today God wants you to sleep well, rise well and have confidence for the day ahead for all that you will encounter. So do not struggle alone, call, text and pray with a friend or neighbour. Even if you have the courage and boldness pray for a stranger who does not yet know the Lord. Lets us all be bold on helping one another to encourage and be encouraged in Jesus name. Amen
Let us Pray…
Father thank you for making space for us, for helping us find you in the mediocre and the mundane. Thank you for reminding us to build a strong prayer life with you, with those whom also love you and help all us love you more through deeper prayer and stronger connections in Jesus name. Amen
“For who has known the mind and purposes of the Lord, so as to instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ [to be guided by His thoughts and purposes]. [Is 40:13]”
1 Corinthians 2:16 AMP
