In place of the Wednesday Festival today, take a moment to rest in His presence and hear these words spoken to you
My busy Child,
In the midst of the Christmas rush
come to me when you are frazzled and worn out.
...
I'll give you rest.
Learn from Me
and you won't be overburdened.
I'll show you how to find balance.
Take time
to be STILL
and KNOW that I am your God.
Set your affections on what really matters,
not on the trivial pursuits of life that try to distract you from Me.
Refresh yourself and refocus
for I am your GOD of PURPOSE
and
I love YOU
with a never-ending love

And if you have time or inclination, feel free to offer up a prayer for all RevGals and pals (and their families) who are so busy over this Christmas period and the comment box is open for you to post a prayer or blessing today, should you wish to do so.
May God bless us all with a beautiful Christmas, full of His light and a reminder of His faithful to keep His promises.
P.S. Wednesday Festival will return again in the New year.

ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful--just what I needed as I try to fend off a cold and face some Christmas blues.
ReplyDeletePeace and joy to all my sisters and brothers in this wonderful community.
Blessings to all of you wonderful RevGals and Pals who continue to make ministry less lonely and definitely WAY more fun!

Hodie!
Unfold the seasonal petals
of your snow-dusted bursting bloom!
Reveal to the clamoring
hungering world
my warmly fleshly
glory-bright birth!
Then ah—listen!
Soon follows
the clear benediction
of a cold bell chiming.
Hodie! Venite adoremus,
Christus natus est!
Praying for all RG's who are working and serving and worshipping in these days! Thanks be to God for each one of you!
ReplyDeleteMy husband is sick - maybe the flu - please keep Ken in your prayers.
Praying for Sophia, and for Ken, and for all the dear Rev. Gals and Pals. What a blessing you are!
ReplyDeleteMay all my lovely Revgals have peace for the holiday. Thank you for sharing all that you do and for giving all your good advice. And Friday Fives and Recipes and funny stories!
