YAY! It is summer! Relaxed summer schedules afford us more time in talking with God about our worries and joys! Don’t you love the words “He inclined to me and heard...” Imagine God gently leaning over you, bending down to hear what you have to say. God is our Father, and leans into us as a loving parent leans in, to hear their child’s whispers and give a hug of encouragement.
Summer can also afford us opportunities to meet with cherished friends and people we have never known. These people may have been calling to our Lord and He is sending you to lean into them and actively listen.
At the Chesapeake District Convention this coming September, you will have the opportunity to hear from people who have leaned in, listened and then followed God’s directions. Good things have happened! What opportunities this summer is God providing you to listen, encourage and lead people to Christ? Opportunities of active listening, praying, visiting shut ins, providing meals, providing help with VBS, constructing sanitary cloths, planning and/or supporting a mission trip. When people lean into a community of believers, they experience God’s Love through the support of brothers and sisters in Christ. We can connect people to our community of believers.
I hope over the summer you will share your opportunities with me via email [email protected]. I would like to share your testimonies at the Chesapeake District Convention, September 25-27. Love, appreciate and thank God for All of You!
In Christ Alone,
Christine Maconachy, President,
LWML Chesapeake District
