Harry: With Your Whole Heart
When was the last time you did something with your whole heart?
Our Guest Blogger today is: Jenny Wirtz, woman of faith, and the Lay Director for women’s CEW 2020
When is the last time you did something with your whole heart?
This opening question was an easy question for me to reflect on and answer. As the lay director for the women’s CEW retreat this year, this is where my heart has been for several months. Leading the CEW retreat is a humbling experience. It’s filled with God moments as I’m surrounded by faith filled women on the journey with me, and on fire with the Holy Spirit at work in our hearts.
One of my biggest blessings of CEW is the relationships you build with team members. Women building each other up, through prayer, discussions, and service to others. I’ve been connected to women that I wouldn’t otherwise know or spend time with. I fully believe that everyone is put in our path for a reason. I’ve been touched by women giving their whole heart to their roles on our CEW team.
When we love and give with our whole hearts, we experience holy moments, God moments. Our CEW theme this year is based on the verse in Matthew 5: 14-16, “You are the light of the world. A city set on a mountain cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and then put it under a bushel basket; it is set on a lampstand, where it gives light to all in the house. Just so, your light must shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your heavenly Father.” My personal prayer for months has been, “Dear Jesus, help me be the light that leads others to You.”
How does our light shine? It shines by putting our whole heart into something.
