Has summer slipped by faster than you wanted?  Are you looking at the last week before schools starts, wishing that you had more time to be recharged before the mad rush of fall?  Me too! 

Perhaps it would be helpful for us to carve out some time this week-- maybe just a half hour-- for intentional time with God.  Perhaps we could use that time for prayer for spiritual renewal, meditation on Biblical truth, and/or reflection on how God would realign our lives so that we could enjoy the sweetness of Him amidst the rush of fall activities. 

Ok.  I put it on my calendar.  How about you?
