“It is overwhelming just to exist right now.”
“Pandemic broke open many things in many different ways. Everything that felt permanent now feels temporal.”
The last three years have brought about significant amounts of trauma, deeply destressing or disturbing experiences, and new learnings in the lives of individuals and communities. As we continue to emerge from all we have experienced, how might we lean into what nurtures life within us? How might we actively transition from a posture of “fight or flight” to one of “rest and digest?”
In Acts 2, we read how the disciples shared much time together, broke bread together with glad and generous hearts, and had the goodwill of all the people. They supported one another and enjoyed one another. How might we enjoy one another today in ways that alleviate loneliness and remind us that we do not have to do life alone? How might the simple act of spending time together transform us and the community around us? Join us this morning as we are challenged to accept the gift of communal life and intentionally enjoy one another.
