Well, actually I plan to see you all before September ~ but more on that in a minute.

Bill and I returned EARLY Sunday morning from three weeks of serving as staff-shepherds for one of the Navigator’s summer training programs in Jacksonville, Florida. Three weeks just 20 minutes from the Atlantic ~ I loved it. A special treat on for this Colorado girl was enjoying an afternoon on the beach after a seafood lunch with Bill to celebrate my birthday.

And, no, I didn’t carve this into the sand, I just happened on it.

Have you signed up to “follow” Echoes of Grace? I hope so, but if not, please do. I send a brief personal devotional note to all who follow along with a reminder of what’s new on Echoes. I’ll be telling you a lot more about my time in Florida in the next note.

“And he said, “My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.””
Exodus 33:14

These words from God to Moses have me thinking; is lack of rest a symptom of being unaware of God’s presence with me?

After a very full June, physical, spiritual, and emotional rest is a priority for July and August. I’ll be pondering many questions like the one above. So Echoes looks a bit different this summer.

This month, I’ve asked some friends if they will share their words on Echoes. Their heart is similar to mine, but their communicating style is different. Each one shines as God created her. I bet you’ll enjoy the change of pace starting tomorrow, July 7.

Surprise!!! Something totally new for Echoes is coming the last week of July. And I need your help. Please let me know if you appreciate the new. If so, it might just become the new normal. More on that later.

If you’re on Navigator staff, this Monday NavWeekly is posting one of my blogs. It’s the same and all new at the same time. So if you are able, scroll down to find the Encore post.

And as always, Echoes goes on vacation for the month of August.
