Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
Siempre es difícil renovar nuestras fuerzas, pero aún más en agosto. O es pleno verano o pleno invierno, dependiendo del hemisferio en el que te encuentres. Sea como sea, necesitamos escuchar el deseo de Dios para todos nosotros de renovarnos y permitir que los que nos rodean se renuevan en su presencia, su gracia y su reposo.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Refreshed! Boy, that's often hard any time, but being refreshed is especially hard in August. It's either the dead of summer or the dead of winter, depending on which side of the equator we find ourselves. Either place, we need to follow God's example of taking a day to rest each week and keep it as a holy time to draw near to him (Exodus 20:11). We need to hear God's desire for us to be refreshed by resting on a day dedicated to him, and to allow those around us to rest and be refreshed in his presence, grace, and rest, as well.
Mi oración
Perdóname, Padre, por estar tan ocupado que no me tomo el tiempo para buscar renovarme en tu reposo. Enséñame tiernamente, Padre, que necesito descansar en tu presencia cada semana y estar con mi familia para ser lo que quieras que yo sea. Renueva mi alma, O Dios, y lléname con tu gozo. En el nombre de Jesús, Amén.
My Prayer...
Forgive me, God, for allowing myself to become so busy at being busy that I don't intentionally take time to be refreshed in your rest. Teach me gently, Father, that I need this weekly rest in your presence and with my family to be all you want me to be and all I can be. Restore my soul, dear Father, and fill me with your restoring and refreshing joy from the Holy Spirit. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
