We go to the Word of God for His wisdom, for His perspective on our lives.
As years go by we realise we have a tendency to change shape and time is writing wrinkles on our faces. We can either be bothered about it or we can choose to be thankful we’ve lived long enough to produce them! One old lady I spoke to many years ago said to ask God to make us beautiful on the inside so it would show on our faces on the outside, and as long as we make sure we have a smile in amongst the wrinkles we can still be a blessing.😊
The encouraging thing is God says He restores our souls. Those days when we do get bent out of shape we can go to our loving Heavenly Father and ask Him to reshape us, to refresh our thinking, to have His perspective, His forgiveness and help us forgive those who’ve upset us.
Our soul won’t heal itself but we do have the Restorer living inside us if we’ll turn to Him. He has us on His potter’s wheel and He’s not finished with us yet, so we know we’re in the process of being restored which is so reassuring.😊
Maybe you need a restoration job today, a rebalancing of thoughts and attitudes? Well the good news is when we woke up this morning God’s new mercies and grace were all available to each one of us, so let’s grab a hold of them and allow God to restore and reshape our souls and get back on His track if we’ve wandered off. In Jesus name. Amen.
Have a blessed weekend.😊x
