Renew My Spirit Oh Lord

Proverbs 15:13
A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
Around this time of year there is always a great sadness in my heart, but we must remember to be thankful for the Word of God.
My loving son and first born, Michael, would have been 35 this month. I remember how when he died I cried out to the Lord with every inch of my being and He was faithful to grant me peace in the face of such violence.
I know that God never said we would not have sorrow. In fact, it’s just a part of life that we will all go through at some time or other and not just once but several times.
That’s why the relationship we build with God is so important. No man could really comfort me at the time of my loss the way I needed comfort. It needed to be complete in order for me to just breathe and God gave me that and much more.
While family and friends were supportive it was God who also had giving His Son’s life for us and knew exactly what was going on in my mind, body and spirit. He knew my every need and only He could be there for me 7/24.
Yes. We will have sorrows, but look at what God also promises us. He promises us that He will always renew our spirit.
2 Corinthians 4:16-18 KJV
For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. [17] For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
No more weakness He strengthens our heart!
Isaiah 40:31
But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
He will refresh not only our spirit, but also our minds.
Ephesians 4:23 KJV
And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
So if you’re having one of those days where sorrow has crept up on you, take time to reach out to our Father above and allow Him to not only comfort you but to also renew your spirit.
And remember, It’s a new day and the sun is shining. Let’s get up and make it beautiful!!!
With love,
Evangelist Cheryl Owolabi
