DENNIS
Good Morning, I am Dennis Gossett with Central United Methodist
Church. Well, by now summer is officially in full force. If you are like me,
you are planning vacations, taking time off from your jobs, and your
students are getting a break from their studies.
During this time of year, we want to relax and enjoy ourselves. After all,
isn’t that what summer is all about? But, this should not be an excuse to
grow relaxed in our faith. It is tempting to let our prayer life grow weak
when we are surrounded by our vacation paradise. God wants us to always
rely upon him, even when things could not seemingly get any better. That is
why he reminds you to always “make your petitions deeps.”
There are still people and situations in your life, in your community, and in
the world that still need your wonderful intercession. When we continue to
offer up our deep petitions to God, we are keeping our hearts fixated on the
One who is working in all things. So, as you are soaking up the suns rays on
your vacation and you’re getting a moment of relaxation, remember those
who could use some time soaking up the rays of God’s Son and are in need
of His peace. Then offer them up joyfully to Him.
