It’s great to be able to refresh my computer screen, because it updates the information displayed. Honestly, we all need to be updated and refreshed sometimes. Whether it is by physical exercise, a soft drink, or just by laughter, to be refreshed is a wonderful thing. It means we are invigorated, renewed, and given new strength. In the Bible we read of the ways God refreshes us, physically and spiritually. In Jeremiah 31:25, we read, “I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint.” In Acts 3:19, the Apostle Peter said, “Repent therefore, and turn to God so that your sins may be wiped out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord.” We are refreshed by God’s presence…in the waters of baptism, the nourishment of the Lord’s Supper, the blessings of fellowship, and the inspiration we find in the singing of hymns and reading the Bible. When you are weary, let God refresh you. May God bless your week! Diane Cooke, Pastor, Presbyterian Churches, Willow Springs and Mtn. View.
