A Song for the Summertime, August 4 Worship Pentecost 8

So, what’s growing at your house this summer?  Weeds seem to grow easily. But what would you rather see grow? In the epistle lesson from Colossians we are challenged to grow in living lives of integrity that honor our Creator. Paul says this kind of growth comes when we get rid of things like “lust, evil desires and greed.” Jesus challenged a man who had many material things to work on growing in the spiritual things of God. We can grow flowers rather than weeds when we are nourished in God’s goodness and love. Let’s sing a prayerful song for the summertime: “Lord enable us to grow in lives that glorify You.”
