SUMMER REMINDER

We are coming closer to the end of the summer and I thought it would be important to take a moment to reflect on something rather remarkable when it comes to the end of summer and what this means. For most, the transition from the new year through spring to the beginning of summer was a blink of an eye. Nevertheless, we now find ourselves looking at the end of summer with fall right behind, and the end of the year. 

What does this mean for you and I in the Bible? This is a not-so-subtle reminder that we are to take every moment captive and be about the Lord’s work. However, this also is a great reminder of the spring and fall feasts. If you are not aware of them, I would encourage you to see Alex’s posts on the feasts.

For me this time of the year has always brought me to thinking of the fall feasts and the expectation that God is not done yet. Let us be about His work, knowing the days are short, and our time on earth is coming ever closer. For those who study God’s Word and take seriously His commandments, we see the day fast approaching and are eager to meet the Lord in the air. Take for heart what God says, examine His word and do not let the day go astray from you. The summer is closer towards ending, let us plan for what God might be calling us to do in the very near future and be ready to love, act, and be obedient to His will. 

Hold until relieved, our Blessed Hope is coming,
