Rhythms and Disciplines

Re:Verse passage – Luke 1:5-17 (day five) “Now it happened that while he was performing his priestly service before God in the appointed order of his division,”

I spent over twenty five years serving churches in youth ministry. One of my favorite sayings to those students was, “be in your place (on Sunday’s).”  What I had hoped the students would discover was that God (who  is at work and present with us at all times) is particularly visible, particularly verbal, and particularly nearer to us as we practice godly rhythms and disciplines. Private and corporate worship. Regular scripture reading and study. Praying. Serving. Christian community. We often see and sense the Lord clearer as we faithfully follow Christ in these ways. That’s what happened to Zachariah. Obedient. Righteous. Walking with the Lord in and through His commandments. Where are your “places” this advent season?  Will you faithfully follow Christ through godly rhythms and disciplines?  May He be particularly verbal and near to you!!
