What I Heard in the Quiet

Reflect

Five summers ago, my husband and I traded blueberry-lined wooded trails and lakes for sidewalks in town, neighbors on every side, and a short walk to the local coffee shop. I’ve grown fond of both spaces for their particular beauty and familiar sounds.

Do You Sabbath?

Rest

I think it’s been years since I felt rested. Not “got enough sleep” rested, but truly refreshed. How long has it been for you?

I spent Labor Day weekend doing something I had never done before. Some friends and I backpacked the Tioga West Rim Trail. On Saturday we started the 30-mile-long hike along the western rim of the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon and reached the end early Monday afternoon.

When I was in high school I ran track and cross-country. My dad, also a runner, gave me a piece of advice that I follow to this day. He said that it was good to have a consistent breathing rhythm, but every once in a while to try to take a bigger breath -- from all the way down, deep within.

Summer in God’s Word

Rest

Psalm 104:34 “May my meditation be pleasing to him, as I rejoice in the Lord.”

Summer brings out the relaxation in all of us, with heading to the beach, dangling our feet in the pool, or sleeping in a little longer. It is one of the times of the year I treasure most because I get to spend so much time with family and friends.

Truth

As soon as Pastor Greg introduced this new sermon series, I knew I was going to be convicted. Honoring the Sabbath is an area in life I have not taken seriously. I have chosen a career that does not have a working day on the weekend but truly using the day as rest to glorify God is not how I use my Sabbath. I want to challenge myself and you to reflect on Pastor Greg’s teaching and see how we can apply it to our lives.
