WONDERFUL REFRESHMENT

“Friends, I realize that what you did to Jesus was done in ignorance; and the same can be said of your leaders. But God was fulfilling what all the prophets had declared about the Messiah beforehand—that he must suffer all these things. Now turn from your sins and turn to God, so you can be cleansed of your sins. Then wonderful times of refreshment will come from the presence of the Lord, and he will send Jesus your Messiah to you again.
 
Acts 3:17-20
 
Would you like the recipe for wonderful refreshment?
 
“… turn from your sins and turn to God…”
 
When life is crashing in all round you and you can do nothing to change it, look to the scripture for the solution. Examine your life for that obstacle you have allowed to come in and block you from the presence of the Lord. It could be business, priorities out of order, or sin. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you identify your obstacle and turn from it.
 
When you “turn from your sins and turn to God…” you will find yourself in “wonderful times of refreshment” because you have entered into “the presence of the Lord.”
 
I praise God for the wonderful refreshment I received this past weekend on the Walk to Emmaus and I thank God for all of you who prayed for us.
