Serving Refreshments

 

...the hearts of the saints
have been refreshed
           through you.

           Philemon 1. 7

(Wherever we are,
wherever familiar
     or unfamiliar
  God has placed us strategically
      to encourage and strengthen
  the faithful ones.
The person we may least expect
      needs us to cheer them on
      or walk a few blocks with them.
May we refresh someone
       with rare kindness
that they may feel seen, heard, 
                     and loved.)

O LORD,
Please make us sensitive
to all those around us
who need a good word,
a big hug,
and the encouragement
         to stay faithful
         in hard places.
Help us to cross paths today
   with someone we can refresh
with Your love, grace,
            and strength
     in both word and deed.
