April 30.
Next up, May 1.
How's your plan looking?
How will you use this month-long quarantine to take steps toward spiritual growth?
May is a great month for growth. Remember, April showers bring _________ __________.
We plant gardens, watch trees bloom and witness vivid shades of green again!
What growth will life's April showers bring to your spiritual May? Are you ready for some growth?
We have thirty-one days, that, if used intentionally and systematically, will result in a flourishing soul!
What will you do daily?
Bible intake? A new prayer practice? Some other soul practice?
If you've not tried it yet, jump on the Dwell app?
We receive Scripture differently when we hear it. If you want to try it, email me here.
Dwell offers several 30 and 40 Day Plans. Choose one and listen daily.
How about this? Why not wake every day and pray on your knees before touching a screen?
Maybe kneeling prayer morning, noon and night?
How about a daily prayer walk? I take mine on the I&M Canal Path and plan to do it every day this month. All 31, rain or shine!
Why not try keeping a daily journal. Maybe you'll write five reasons for thanks every day.
How about this? A meal every day at the table. Maybe even try reading a passage together or listening to a Dwell Plan.
Here's another. Completely turn off ALL technology for one hour every day.
What will you do daily?
Move to weekly.
Have you tried fasting one day a week?
Maybe it is time to take a true weekly Sabbath?
What if one day a week all technology was totally turned off all day long?
How about connecting with a friend(s) for a Zoom study? Why not pray with someone weekly?
Is it time to revive letter writing? Write a letter of encouragement to someone.
Don't for get your weekly connection with SouthField.
Set your family's time. Worship is totally in your hands right now. Set a time.
Determine what you will do beyond the video. Communion? Singing? Prayer? Talking after about what you learned?
It is way too easy to put it off until later, and then never do it.
Monthy?
What one thing you will do this May to spur your growth?
Is there a book you've been hoping to read? Take it in this May.
How about memorizing a chapter of the Bible?
You could organize a prayer journal.
Why not try unplugging from Facebook or the "news."
Maybe it is a serve of some sort.
How's your plan looking?
Time is ticking. Try something new. Revive something old.
