MR. WHEELER’S WEEKLY WORD OF ENCOURAGEMENT
As we continue to enjoy the blessings of summer, I pray each of you are finding time to make lasting memories with family and friends. We have to find time to enjoy the gifts God has given us and Summer is a great season to put all of that on display. This is my family’s first Summer in Georgia and although we came from Texas where it is extremely hot, we were not prepared for the humidity Georgia brings. Whew…it is a sauna outside!
While our routines may change during these months, our relationship with the Lord should remain our highest priority. Continue to spend time in His Word each day, seek Him in prayer, and allow Him to shape your heart. God's truth is just as essential on vacation, at the ballfield, or by the pool as it is in the classroom. As you enjoy the remainder of your summer, please stay safe, encourage one another, and look for opportunities to reflect the love of Christ wherever you go. We are already praying for another incredible year at Trinity and cannot wait to welcome you back to campus.
"Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path." — Psalm 119:105
As we continue walking together, may we know God more deeply, make Him known more faithfully and trust Him to guide every step we take. May the Lord bless you and your family this week.
