Thanks for allowing
me to whine about such an insignificant topic as a vacation gone wrong. We are
regaining our energy after our grueling road trip, the crowds, the noisy
neighbors, the impossible lines. How do you find new strength after a tiring
trip, a long day, a health crisis, a stressful day at work? Some of us work
out. Some of us go to the mall. Some of us call friends. My elixir is solitude.
Solitude revitalizes me. My favorite type of day includes a long walk, and time
to reflect, write and read. Digging in the garden is a slice of heaven for me. And chocolate never hurts.
Seeing the kids and
grandkids always helps and we missed them terribly. The years continue to fly
by as they continue to grow too fast and we grow ever older. Find a way to
re-energize. Allow the Holy Spirit to
fill you with His kind of strength. It is a supernatural power able to sustain us
at all times.
Feel the essence
and power of the Holy Spirit within you and conquer your fear and exhaustion.
He will renew your strength, until you are filled with His heavenly power.
Therefore, I remind you to stir up the gift of God
which is in you with the laying on of my hands. For God has not given us a
spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 2 Timothy 1:6-7
Lord,
Help us to stir up the gifts You make available to us. We need
Your kind of love and power. Keep our minds steadfastly focused on You.
In Jesus name,
Amen
