Greetings in Christ,
I saw Bubba outside the bakery on an early May afternoon. He is a member of St Peter Lutheran in Greene and the dad of five very active kids. I asked him how things were going, to which he replied, "We might have one supper at home this month." He then recited the family schedule for the next several weeks.
I thought they would be lucky to have one family supper that month.
Looking at our May calendar, I see a month filled with various activities-concerts, games, graduations, and other grandkid events. It's a joy to know that Jackie and I can be present at all these events, sharing in the lives of our Wee Ones.
Amidst the hustle and bustle of our lives, let us not forget the One who eagerly awaits our presence. Our Lord has redeemed us, not just to partake in the blessings of this life but also to be in His presence through worship. It is in this relationship with Him that we find all the other activities of our lives falling into their rightful places.
Blessings in Christ,
Pr. Hatcher
