Fresh or Stale ????

Jana & I were blessed to be speakers at a Refreshing conference. And wow we were refreshed. There was a verse shared there that I haven't been able to shake. Act 3:19 “Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord. As Believers we must learn how to be refreshed. 1 Repent. This means we have moved away from Christ. And it's usually those "little sins" that cause it. Solomon 2:15 says
“Catch the foxes for us,
The little foxes that are ruining the vineyards,
While our vineyards are in blossom.” Don't under estimate sin. We catergorize sins but they seperate us from our connection with our LifeGiver. 2 Return. We know what we are to be doing. So go back to it! Get with a Brother or Sister in Christ and confess & pray. James 5:16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much. Get in God's Word in find a body of Believers and worship with them and then be REFRESHED by the presence of the Lord!!
