why Re-Charge?

When the world and all that surrounds it...people, people, people....get to be too much what do you do?

Well, I'm so glad to know that there is a place for us...

Optimism, courage, and faithfulness feed on high morale. The ability to push on, alone if necessary, requires clear vision. In order for goals to be reached, there has to be a stirring up from within . . . a spark that lights the fire of hope, telling us to "Get at it" when our minds are just about to convince us with "Aw, what's the use?" It's called motivation.

Christians should have no difficulty identifying with soldiers in the field or athletes in a game. Our ability to accomplish what is expected of us is directly linked to our morale and vision. What we need is a charge of renewal. God understands that. His people have been that way since the beginning.

For Abraham, the place of renewal was Bethel, where he "built an altar to the LORD and called upon the name of the LORD" (Gen. 12:8). For Moses and the Israelites, it was the tabernacle in the wilderness, where God's glory rested. For the Twelve, it was their frequent meetings with Jesus.

All of us need such times and places of renewal, when our morale and vision are reignited and our spiritual batteries are recharged . . .
when the Spirit of God can do His masterful work of motivation. When that occurs, a burst of new energy returns and we're back on our feet, winning a second-half victory on the same turf that had earlier spelled defeat.
You may need your inner battery recharged.

We cannot deliver the goods if our heart is heavier than the load.

What do you do when things have gotten to you? This weekend...I'm spending time with my Grandkids and just loving on them....forgetting all the hard things in life and just enjoying them, watching them and playing with them. They are so perfect and God gave us this gift for such times as these when we need to re-charge. When I look at them I see hope, I see purity, I see joyfulness, I see God! It renews my faith in people....

What's your outlet?
