It really seems time has gone fast this year. It is already June. June has been a month of adventures for me in the past. I have traveled internationally for ministry trips Romania, France, Mexico and Brazil in June. When June comes, I usually have a sense of anticipation wondering what adventure the Lord has in store for me.

This year I do not have any travel plans. It doesn’t have the feel of anticipation for adventure, but my hope is to still be useful in showing the love of Jesus.

It will start today as I visit a Mandean family from Iran. I love this family and it is a difficult time for them because the husband’s father passed away in Iran 45 days ago. We will eat their traditional food for such an occasion of fish and rice. This family is special to me. When I visited them with a young couple from my church, they told my friends from my church, “Matt is part of our family.” 🙂

My hope is that this month while I have more free time due to break time for all of my classes, I will have the opportunity to visit many families from other countries. But there is something that needs to come first. I love what Psalm 37 says:

“Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart “

The desires of my heart have changed over the years. The more time I spend with Jesus, the more my heart desire is to share his love. So this month of break time my first priority is more time with Jesus in prayer, listening to worship music, and reading my bible.

Welcome June. It will be interesting to see what the Lord has in store for me. What are your plans for June?

Thank you for reading. God Bless.
