Seeking safer paths… | Disciple Playbook

{NOTE: A few years back my mom and I spent glorious time traveling in South Africa. One bonus of the trip are devotionals – like the one below – with more global perspective…}

Surveying the South African landscape, one can’t help but be pleased by God’s creation. In particular, the creatures here are beautiful and incredible.

Yet amidst this beauty the “circle of life” looms. Watching impala cautiously seeking safe paths, it’s easy to understand the frightening African environment for animals.

Sadly, many humans experience similar instability. The good news is that we humans have the opportunity to support one another plus enjoy a faith-filled life before, during and after these challenging moments. With our faith-based community at the ready, we can more easily lean into life regardless of what comes our way!

ACTION: can you identify someone in your circle of influence who may need a little extra support? Make contact with him/her today and consider ways you can provide a little safer and/or more enjoyable path for that person…

May you enjoy this day with the power of an elephant, the attention of an impala and filled with the Spirit!
