Every believer needs a time of refreshment. The journey is long with many uphill climbs. Like the psalmist says, our soul thirsts for God “as in a dry and weary land where there is no water” (Psalm 63:1). There are days when we need renewal.

So simple, yet such a great reminder that meaningful conversation is both speaking and listening. We are taught that in the Old Testament.
