Summer is now upon us. For some of us that means life is ramping up, for others things might be slowing down. Whatever season of life we find ourselves in, it is always good to take a moment to pause and reflect on where we’ve been, where we are at present, and where it is we are headed.
This week we want to draw your attention to an article by Trevor Hudson on the significance of retreat. Retreat, he says, gives us an opportunity to listen to that which we don’t often hear, to “listen to the groans” of the world and of our own heart.
He writes, “As we listen to these groans, we are drawn into a deeper faithfulness, both in our personal discipleship and in our life together as God’s people. Most importantly, when we listen to these groans, we begin to have a much clearer understanding of how we can participate in God’s healing dream for the mending of our broken world.”
