THE PROMISE: GOD IS A CONSTANT SOURCE OF RENEWAL

"Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, because I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30 HCSB

Even the most inspired women can, from time to time, find themselves running on empty. Why? Because the inevitable demands of daily life can drain us of our strength and rob us of the joy that is rightfully ours in Christ. Thankfully, God stands ready to renew our spirits.

God’s Word is clear: when we lift our prayers to Him, He renews our strength. I saw this all weekend at the Workshop with your parents. We continuously would return to Jesus and it would refresh and rejuvenate your parents who were working so hard. A little responsible listening model…back to Jesus. Refreshed!

A little Awareness Wheel…back to Jesus. Refreshed! A little Guiding Principles…you get the picture. Look at Jesus today, above the piano, and feel refreshed as you head to Group and to school and to work out and to lunch.

Are you seeking a renewed sense of purpose? Turn your heart towards God in prayer. Are you weak or worried? Take the time to delve deeply into God’s Holy Word. Are you feeling guilt or shame about something? Turn your eyes to Christ, fold your hands, and speak to the creator of the Sun, the Moon, the ocean, and the mountains.

Get this…the creator of the universe knows your name. Close your eyes and say that to yourself. You got Him in your corner. Wow! He stands ready to create a new sense of wonderment and joy in you. Are you willing? Are you unwilling? The choice is yours.

My choice is to be of Him and for Him. I am a Christ-centered, adventuresome, grateful, generous, and reliable child of God!

“Once we recognize our need for Jesus, then the building of our faith begins. It is a daily, moment-by-month life of absolute dependence upon Him for everything.” - Catherine Marshall

Our Prayer: Dear Lord, every day of my life is a journey with You. Today is another day on that journey. Guide my steps today. Father, and keep me mindful that today offers yet another opportunity to celebrate Your blessings, Your love, and Your Son. Amen.
