Counters: Needed I cant believe that its almost fall again and that as I write this kids are getting ready to go back to school. We did our school supply shopping last week and will do the back to school clothes shopping in a few days. It feels like we were just preparing for the school year to end and now its all starting back up. That of course means that activities at church will be starting up again. Sunday school, our 3 choirs, and both Bible studies. September really is one of the most active times of the year. It reminds me of a well loved and oft recited Bile reading from the old testament.
Ecclesiastes 3 There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing, a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away, a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace. Its a reminder to us that theses seasons of life keep going. Fall will leave only to come back again. It also seems that each cycle of the seasons goes quicker than the last. Perhaps this can serve as a reminder that there is no time like the present to get involved. With things resuming and restarting now is the time to get involved. To participate in bible study, help with Sunday school, be a deacon, reader, communion assistant, participate in youth group, the women's group or LYMA. This is the season to join in. I invite you to consider finding a new way to participate in Church. There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: make this the season of renewed participation Peace, Jamie |
