As we move through the year, it’s worth taking a moment to look back and reflect on what God has been doing in our lives.

Sometimes His lessons come through seasons of growth and blessing. Other times, they come through challenges, waiting, and unexpected circumstances. No matter the season, God is always at work shaping us, strengthening our faith, and drawing us closer to Him.

What’s one thing God has been teaching you this year?

Summer often brings a different rhythm to life.

Schedules shift. Vacations happen. Routines change. While those changes can be refreshing, they can also make it easy to drift from the spiritual habits that keep us grounded.

This season can be a great opportunity to reconnect with God in simple ways. Spend a few quiet moments in prayer each morning. Read a chapter of Scripture before reaching for your phone. Take a walk and use that time to listen, worship, and reflect. Give yourself permission to rest and create space to hear God’s voice.

A spiritual reset doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes the smallest intentional steps can help us draw closer to Him again.

What is one way you stay connected to God during the summer months?

As we step into a new month, this verse reminds us that our calling, education, ministry, and daily work are all opportunities to trust God more deeply.

It can be easy to focus on our own plans, timelines, and goals. Yet Scripture invites us to place everything in God’s hands, trusting that He will direct our steps and establish what aligns with His purpose.

Whatever this month holds, may we remain faithful, committed, and confident that God is at work in and through us.

What are you trusting God with this month?
