I checked the outside temperature, poured my morning coffee,
and walked to my screened porch. After high temperatures and humidity, I was
thrilled with the notion I could have my morning devotions outside. It was a
bit chilly (for me) at 6 am so I grabbed a blanket to cover my legs.
With an eye on refreshment, I sipped my hot coffee and prepared to
open my Bible. Refreshed? How do you need to be refreshed after sleeping seven
hours? Shouldn’t a good night’s sleep refresh? Yes, I woke up naturally, so I
had adequate sleep. I was looking for something else.
Refresh carries with it being fortified or reinvigorated. In
the world of technology, refreshing a computer screen calls for updating.
That’s what I needed--updating.
