Does Your Soul Need to be Refreshed?

If you’ve been coming to church for any length of time, then you know there is more to life than simply living for your work, your self, or your family. As important as all of these ‘treasures’ are, they can’t compare to the greatest treasure of all—the living God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Do you have a friendship with the living God? Is it a vital friendship in which you trust Him as your all-in-all? Even after we are adopted by God into his family, we still will have slow periods when faith seems like drudgery. The Bible says, ‘Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you…Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exult you’ (James 4.8, 10). Jesus declared, ‘Whoever drinks of the water that I give him will never be thirsty forever’ (John 4.14). If you haven’t done so already, then make God your first love. If He already is but you’ve neglected Him lately, then return to Him now, today. Trust in his mercy and grace to refresh you in the days ahead.
