Dear Friends, a little change of pace here today.
This note is especially for folks who have not been at SWC for the last week or two, and might be wondering what’s happening around here.
One thing. We are talking with our divine Lover.
This is a season of responding to God’s invitation to intimacy. God loves us and we recognize that for all our talk about having a relationship with God, it is easy to let that slip, so we are saying, let’s reconnect.
Here are a few things we are doing this week:
1—First minutes. Whenever we change gears through the day, talk to God. Wake up, talk with God for a minute. Get in the car . . . sit on the couch . . . getting to work at work or school or the kitchen . . . talk to God.
2—Pray through a meal time on Wednesdays. Feb 17 is Ash Wednesday. Give a meal to fellowship with your divine Lover.
3—2-way pray. Read a verse of Scripture and respond to it. That’s a conversation. Start with something familiar like Psalm 23 or the Lord’s Prayer.
Simple stuff, and it is not “change the world” prayer, just practicing the presence of Jesus.
Now, there’s other stuff going on. Paula shared her testimony last Sunday. Saturday we had a blast at the Stonewall Sweethearts night. The Durst’s separated themselves from the pack with their score on the Newlywed Game. The Crotos, Thompsons and Stivers all scored 40-50 points, while the Wells’ and Perkins scored 60. Paula and I hit 25, but we thought there was going to be a pity prize. Sadly, there was only pity!
Anyway, we are loving life in the church family and in the work that God has given us here in the Lex-Nich-Wilmore communities. I’ll drop a note later this week about things coming up.
In the meantime . . . enjoy the snow and enjoy talking with your divine Lover.
