You have all you need
Order of Worship, Prayer beads, pens, Emmaus Cross (from when I was Walk Lay Director) |
The day was dreary when I went into the chapel. One wall has several stained glass windows that face the street, but they were rather dim when I went into the room. As I was praying, mainly just being silent, I could tell that the light level in the room was increasing. I opened my eyes; sunlight was streaming through the stained glass, reflecting off the shiny wood floors - white light, colored light. It was absolutely beautiful, and it truly felt like I was surrounded by God.
The words - not my words -
in my head as I prayed were "You have all you need." That's the message I took to my committee. In a time of tightening budgets and decreasing membership, we have all we need to do what God is calling us to do.
I think that's a message for more than just one committee. (And for those who are veterans of the Walk to Emmaus and are part of a reunion group, that was my "moment when I felt closest to Christ.")
