DENNIS
Good Morning, I am Dennis Gossett with Central United Methodist Church. Well, summer is about to be officially here. If you are like me you are already planning vacations, taking time off work, and having your kids taking a break from their studies. Next month, we all 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 planning to be surrounded by our vacation paradise. God wants us to always rely upon him, even when things could not seemingly be 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.
