Show me, Guide me, Teach me


(NIV) Ps 25:4 Show me your ways, LORD,

teach me your paths.

5 Guide me in your truth and teach me,

for you are God my Savior,

and my hope is in you all day long.

 

When I finished my physical therapy session Wednesday, I returned to the waiting room  to find Larry talking to a couple. Larry said this gentleman plays a banjo. In less than five minutes I learned he has preached at the same church for 30 years. We developed an immediate kinship and in a moment we had church in that lobby.

 

When we actively seek after God (show me, guide me, teach me) the relationship we have with our Creator deepens. The more we have of God, the more we want of Him, and the more we must share Him with others.

 

Praying that as we approach Christmas of 2024 we will not tumble headlong into the holidays but instead we will slow down to savor the stories of the Star, the Shepherds, and Savior. I pray that we will relish the relationships made meaningful through both our human  connections and through the Divine.

 

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
