The Good Shepherd is for You www.monahodgson.com

The Good Shepherd is For You

Some mornings it feels like I’m walking side by side with Jesus on dusty roads or sitting on grassy hillsides listening to His teachings. This was one of those mornings. As I read through chapter 10, I could hear the confusion and disbelief in the Pharisees’ voices. And the confident, compassionate clarity in voice of The Good Shepherd.

Friends, I don’t know where you find yourself emot Friends, I don’t know where you find yourself emotionally or spiritually (or physically, for that matter) this summer—celebrating or mourning, anticipating or dreading, clapping or crying. 

What I do know is that we all have seasons of waiting. And they’re not fun. Much of the time they are barely tolerable. The life we have puts us in relationship with other people dedicated to their own perspectives, priorities, and timelines. 

And SO we end up waiting . . . for answers. Waiting for change. Waiting for stability. Waiting for closed doors to open. Waiting for a resolution. Waiting for whatever remains hidden on the horizon. Waiting on a God who’s will and way seems, at the least, hazy.

Meanwhile, the clock is ticking. We’re losing precious time. Opportunities could slip through our fingers. And we’re short on patience. (Or is that just me?)

Why does waiting take so long? 

If that’s where you are this summer, feeling stuck in an in-between space, waiting and waiting some more, pop over to my website and sign up to receive tomorrow's newsletter. I’m sharing one of my liminal space seasons with this month’s news because my heart aches to encourage you.
Happy World Chocolate Day, friend! Get the recipe Happy World Chocolate Day, friend! Get the recipe for these not so pretty but tasty treats, a timely devotional, a four-book giveaway, and more in this week’s newsletter. Don’t miss out. Sign up at my website. Thanks!
