Renewal

 

I am made new by the ever-renewing life of God.

I open my heart to behold the world around me with awe and wonder. The breath of God gives life to all creation—the purring cat, the leaping tiger and ME! The atoms of the Universe vibrate with the energy of One Life, One Love. Whether I consider the tiniest particles of an atom or the majesty of a mountain range, I am humbled by God’s handiwork. The renewing life of Spirit is present in every pattern and every corner of creation.
The life of God renews my life. It is the divine energy that heals all wounds, forgives all errors, and leads me to more deeply understand God’s love. Every day is made new—not by what happens around me, but by what happens within me.

The Lord, your God, is in your midst, … he will renew you in his love.—Zephaniah 3:17
