Pastor Trudy's message
Keeping the reserves full! A friend slept for the first three days of her sabbatical. The funny thing is, if you had asked her before she went if she was tired, she would have said 'no'. We aren't always fully aware of how empty the tank is until we finally refill it. For a lot of folks, they don't realize it until their body stops...an illness or injury brings everything to rest. The bridesmaids in our parable also learn the importance of reserves, the wise ones are ready for whatever comes. Are you?
Holy and mighty God, You generously offer us precious time with You. When we receive it, our reserves are filled and we are ready to offer Your love to the world. Help us to do this...to remind ourselves that we live in You. In Jesus' name, Amen.
