People will be heading out or staying in for rest and relaxation, exploration and adventure.
During your summer vacation, consider playing a game of “I Spy.” This version involves God – and He can be found anywhere.
My family spotted Him frequently during a Memorial Day weekend trip: in the grandeur of the Rocky Mountains, in tiny wildflowers, forest creatures, looming storm clouds and glimpses of rainbows.
We detected His presence as He kept us safe in travel, gave us favorable weather and shared in our silliness and play. He was there as we gathered for restaurant meals, slept soundly in our hotel beds and worshiped at Mass on Pentecost.
But God also was hidden in panhandlers on the street and in our own moments of fatigue, grumpiness and impatience.
He was with us in every step and every mile. We just had to look.
Where will you spy Him this summer?
Inspired by the Year of Faith, Susan Szalewski began writing weekly columns for us. Although that year is over, we liked them so well that we asked her to keep writing. Thankfully, she said yes. So watch for these on Thursdays and see the Year of Faith Blog here.
