Time to Recharge

~ Barbara

Summer is a passing season. Soon it will yield to the chill and busyness of autumn. It can be a challenge to dive back into the fray. Are you ready?

The quiet of summer has allowed me to recharge and pray about fall opportunities. What will the new season bring? I’m not looking for good ideas—I have plenty of those. I’m asking God to reveal His plans for me and considering opportunities in our new church home. As I prayed, I thought about God’s promise to bless those who delight in Him.

Psalm 1:3 says, “Whatever they do prospers.” It struck me that the promise isn’t for worthy thoughts or good intentions but for what we do. We are expected to contribute, not be observers.

Lord, there’s a small window before fall activities resume—recharge me with passion and courage. Speak to my heart and point me in the direction you choose. You’ve prepared a ministry for me and prepared me for ministry. I thank you now, for prospering what you and I will do this fall.

  1. Barbara, I love that you see summer as a time of rest, recharge, reflection, quietness, waiting on God, and prayer. I say ‘Amen’ to that, and ‘Amen’ to your prayer for you and for myself! I think I’m going allow myself a longer summer.💗🍁
