New Voices
“May God be gracious to us and bless us,
may the face of the Lord shine upon us
and all the ends of the earth will honor our God.”
--From a Psalm of God’s people,
Chapter 67, selected verses
God’s grace comes to us in a variety of ways. As new opportunities come our way, we gain new understanding about the awesome nature of God’s holy presence among us. Recently I’ve been listening to a new voice. From this new voice I am finding, enjoying, and learning more about the graciousness of God.
This voice is a new associate at the hospital. When we have a new person on staff, in our organization or in our neighborhood, it is important for us to welcome and integrate them into our community. As the new people with their hopes, dreams and goals blend with the “seasoned” group or neighborhood, we all discover God gracing us and blessing us in refreshing ways.
Have you noticed the face of the Lord shining on you recently?
Prayer: Gracious God, help us to be ever aware of new voices in our lives. Amen.
