Be refreshed ....

My heart goes out to parents, all mums and dads, who are tired or hassled or just not sure how you can fit into your day all the things you have to do as well as responding to the demands and needs of your children, plus all the other interruptions. Life today is full of stress and workloads and problems that can seem just too much to cope with ... here are a few thoughts from the Bible to start the day:

 Deut 33:28 and Hos 14:5.
"His heavens also shall drop dew..."
"I will be like dew..."

 Dew comes first thing in the morning, and God also comes early - He is there waiting for you as you wake. His refreshing dew is there for your tiredness. His understanding love is waiting to speak into your heart and into all your hopes and desires and disappointments and frustrations and worries. He is there, still and quiet, waiting to drop that still dew of His presence into the depths of your being. Dew is there when you haven't got time to get a big drink from the Word. 
Be stilled, be refreshed,  be encouraged and renewed with the gentle Holy Spirit dew upon you today!

Each morning as you get out of bed, before your feet touch the ground, just ask the Holy Spirit to come with His dew, with His gentle refreshing love and give you grace and help for everything you will face today. 

And for practical ways to allow God's dew to refresh your life and to keep in touch with Jesus through your busy day, have a look at "Mums with Jesus Part 3" on my daughter Jo's website Mums, Kids, Jesus.
