Anytime, Anywhere

You have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence. Psalm 16:11For nearly a year we had been planning our big family vacation.My husband and I, our children and spouses and the 5 oldest grandkids were going out west to a ski resort. It was a very big deal, especially since we all live in a warm climate. First morning 'most everyone headed to the ski slopes. My daughter, a new mom, went for some R-and-R at a spa, and I set out for an early walk.

Light snow was flurrying, and even against a grey sky it was beautiful. Not too far away was a church. I eased into a small back pew.

Communion was being celebrated during the service. As I made my way up front, I looked out across the people. So many different faces, so many different reasons that might have brought them there. No doubt many had come to simply worship our Lord. Others, though, perhaps out of desperation, or with a faint hope. I thought, so many different cries of the heart, yet God hears them all.

Many times over the years I had sought out this peaceful place. It had always been a safe, sheltering place to pray. It is wonderful to have the opportunity to go to a church or place of worship to seek God and meet with Him.

However, we can do that anytime, anywhere. No matter what is on our minds, and what our needs or desires are, Jesus is always available to us. Anytime, anywhere.
