Summer Is Almost Over

4 Kids

Summer has been great! I have spent time with my wife, kids, and grandkids, floated down a lazy creek in Pennsylvania, and helped kids enter a deeper relationship with Christ. I have played golf, caught some fish, and helped a friend install a hardwood floor in his dining room. I have had a nice vacation. Through it all, I never took a vacation from God. He has been by my side all summer. This summer has been busy, but fun.

How was your summer? I hope you had fun doing some of the things that you enjoy doing. It is good to take time to relax. Play is a healthy thing to do. School will begin soon. Play will be limited to recess time, weekends and before and after school. It is important for our bodies and minds to take time to play. It refreshes us for the mental work of school and life.

It is also important to refresh your spirit. The spirit part of you needs time in prayer and reading God's Word, the Bible, each day. Don't limit God to Sundays. He wants to be part of your life each day. Spending time with Him will renew you, refresh you, and help you with the challenges of every day living.

Read your Bible and pray today. Summer is almost over, but God is still interested in every aspect of your life.
