It sure was hot today!
Hey you all! Really humid and hot today! I thank God that He gave men the intelligence to invent A/C. We have those kinds of abilities because we were created in the image of God. God, of course, likes to create new things. He loves to make things new. He loves to make our lives new. Sounds like Hannah, Halley and Ryan were refreshed at Senior High Camp. So glad to hear it!
He makes all things new. He doesn't want our lives to be dormant. He especially doesn't want our spiritual walk with Him to be dormant. The only way to keep a vibrant, fresh relationship with Him is to have a relationship with Him. So let's not forget to keep Him in the forefront of our lives. The Bible talks about a vibrant, refreshing river. The river is actually Jesus Christ. He is like refreshing, flowing water.
Recently, I was at Lake Erie. It was pretty hot out! Me and the kids jumped into the water. I didn't want to get in at first because I knew how cold it was compared to the air. But once we got in, we didn't want to get out! If we will actually really jump into a deep, refreshing relationship with Jesus, we won't want to get out!
But I havn't had time to go to Lake Erie recently. So I haven't been longing to go swimming in it's refreshing water. That happens sometimes ( a lot of times) with Jesus. We get busy and just don't realize what we are missing out on. WELL, Jump in! He feels really good. You'll be glad yo did! If you didn't read this far, then you won't know that this month's (August) book of the month is JOSHUA. Let's try some O.T. this month. Some really cool stories in this one. Fighting, winning, etc.
Love YOU all much! Jesus loves you even more! Stay Close To Him! Larry
