The desk in my office faces the window looking out onto my front garden. Over the past couple of months, it’s been lovely watching the birds pulling up bits of moss out of the grass, I presume to line their nests. During school holidays, I can hear children playing outside – what a delight to hear youngsters enjoying themselves. However, now as I look out, all I see are dark grey clouds! Where’s the sun?
So far, we could probably count on one hand how many sunny days we’ve had. There’s nothing like a bit of sunshine to make us feel better about what we face day to day. But what do we do on the dark, grey days. Well, there is another Son we can look upon. We can turn our faces toward Jesus, who journeys through life alongside us, even though we might not recognise it.
Easter and Christmas are often the seasons we focus on Jesus, but I believe he’s worth focussing on at other times of the year too. I find myself being reminded just how important it is to deliberately put myself into His presence. I’m sure we can all testify as to how life can be fast and furious, which is probably why we look forward to a time of rest and recuperation in the summer months. Holidays are a great time to rest, be with those we love, to take time out to do things we really enjoy doing, but I find, taking time out to be with the Lord, can be a bit like having a ‘mini-break’. It gives me time to re-set my thoughts and have a gentle recharge.
Whatever you are doing during the coming summer months, it is my prayer that you have some time to just be. May you all find that moment refreshing, and wherever you go, may you travel, and return, safely.
Grace and Peace to you all
Revd Ann
