Friday, 19 November, 2004

This week's devotions are written by Redeemer member Judith Bird.



We have spent the week thinking about time…our time…God’s time…the seasons of time. And while “time” and “enough time” can be an issue throughout the year, it seems to increase in intensity, actually, just about now.



Thursday is Thanksgiving and right after that comes the first Sunday in Advent. All of a sudden we are on that treadmill leading up to Christmas. But for me, remembering “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven” helps to take the pressure off.



This season coming up is one to bask in the waiting for that wondrous gift God gave all of us – His son Jesus. With that as the central focus, it can be a time of anticipation, joy, celebration and sharing.



Prayer: Thank you for giving us special times to focus on your great love for us. Amen
