“Refresh to Reset”

Monday, August 17, 2020

Categories: Monday Morning Meditation

Yesterday we discussed 4 things that will help us in times where we feel the need to press the reset button on life. We restrict ourselves from the things that are less important than our immediate issue, focus on the thing that matters, and look to the one who is able to reset our circumstance. We release our fears, our worries, our doubts, in prayer to God and in so doing we reset our perspectives. Having restricted our bodies we refill our souls with the vivifying, animating, restoring Word if God. We are reminded of His work in resetting circumstances throughout the course of history, and these words breathe new life into us. Finally, if the reason for our need to reset is the enemy we see when we look in the mirror, we must repent. We cry out to God for restoration and renewal. We depend on Him to reset us from the inside out. We come to Him with broken and contrite hearts ready to reset the course of our thoughts and desires and thus to reset the course of our lives. Then we repeat.

I’d like to suggest a 5th tool that will help us to reset. It is the word refresh. Paul uses this term often to talk about the ability the community of believers and individual brothers and sisters in Christ have to revive the soul. Opening ourselves up to this rejuvenating force is one more way we depend on God’s work of resetting our lives (1 Cor. 16:18, 2 Cor. 7:13; 2 Tim. 1:16; Rom. 15:32; Phm 7, 20).

In fact, this concept was the genesis of this sermon’s development. I was in need of a reset when a friend and dear sister texted me to ask how I was doing and encourage me. This was a catalyst that further stimulated me to reset. I am thankful for you, my brothers and sisters, and your ability to refresh me and strive to do the same for you.

Let us always consider how we might stir one another up to love and good works, how we can be a rejuvenating, reinvigorating, refreshing presence in each other’s lives. To the Hebrew writer's application (Heb. 10:24-25), we can’t do that if we are never present. We must take every opportunity to encourage each other, especially at a time such as this where we are socially distanced. Let us interact, engage, and encourage. Let us call upon each other, visit from front porches, have coffee over zoom, send each other texts, notes, letters, etc. Let us continue to be creative and intentional as we participate in God’s work of resetting in this way. Let us use the resources we have in the circumstance we find ourselves in to refresh one another. Are you in need of reset today? Let us refresh you on your way.
