Refresh and Renew Yourself….

Refresh and renew yourself with the Lord each morning.  Wake up with Him on your mind, instead of all the cares and worries that you really have no control over.  Turn your cares over to Him and let Him show you the way for the day….

He provides for the sparrows every day…They never go hungry…You have never seen a sparrow sitting on a tree branch having a nervous breakdown worrying about being able to eat for the day.  Are you not worth more than a bird to Him?
Matthew 6:26Look at the birds. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are?

Part of the refreshing process is to review all the blessings He has given you in your life.  Thank Him and praise Him continually for these blessings to ensure a positive outlook on the upcoming day.
Psalm 29:2–Honor the Lord for the glory of his name. Worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness.

The world teaches us to pursue worldly things and hold onto them tightly.  The Lord teaches us to let go of our worldly ways and give, instead of taking.  The more that you give yourself to Him and to others, the more He refreshes us with unlimited joy in our formerly empty hearts.
1Peter:1:8–You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you do not see him now, you trust him; and you rejoice with a glorious, inexpressible joy.
