Well, this is the last weekend in August. In some ways, I hate to see summer end - it means the beginning of a new school year for all the kids. It means the end of lazy days with sandwich suppers, fresh peaches and tomatoes and not taking housework so seriously. It also means the end (hopefully) of unbearably hot days, allergies that make me miserable and yard work that never ends. So it's not so bad to have September right around the corner.
I found something in my devotions this morning I'd like to share:
I wish I could make it all new again; I can't. But God can. "He restores my soul," wrote the shepherd. God doesn't reform; He restores. He doesn't camouflage the old; He restores the new. The Master Builder will pull out the original plan and restore it. He will restore the vigor, He will restore the energy. He will restore the hope. He will restore the soul.
Max Lucado
That's what I need. Restoration. A new perspective...vigor...energy...hope! I pray that God will restore me this new season to His original plan for me.
