Refresh

1 Corinthians 16:18- “ For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.

For they have refreshed my spirit”
By their coming and presence; the very sight of them gave him joy and pleasure,

and yours;
his spirit and theirs, in divine things, being the same; they were of one heart and soul; they had the same love, and were of one accord, and of one mind

therefore acknowledge ye them that are such;
as these men; know them, have an affection for them, show respect to them, highly esteem of them for their works' sake; 

What does it mean to be refreshed? It is to be made fresh, to revive, to enliven, to invigorate, to rejuvenate, to energize, to restore, to recharge, or to revitalize

When you refresh another emotionally, you are refreshed by peace and contentment. When you refresh another spiritually, you are refreshed by the grace and love of God

How can you refresh others? 
1)Care for others 
2) Help Move People Forward
you have opportunities to lift up the people around you in tremendous ways.  Going to someone’s boss to let them know an employee was helpful, affirming someone in an email, giving shout-outs to those that help you, and just being generous about applause can do good things for your soul.
We can share Bible verses with each other. Pray for others 
3)Be Generous. 
Even if you cannot give financially, we can give our time or talents. 


When you think of refreshing others, is there a person who comes to mind for you?

Let’s refresh others

🎵
  1. Look all around you, find someone in need,
    Help somebody today!
    Though it be little—a neighborly deed—
    Help somebody today!
    • Refrain:
      Help somebody today,
      Somebody along life’s way;
      Let sorrow be ended, the friendless befriended,
      Oh, help somebody today!
  2. Many are waiting a kind, loving word,
    Help somebody today!
    Thou hast a message, oh, let it be heard,
    Help somebody today!
  3. Many have burdens too heavy to bear,
    Help somebody today!
    Grief is the portion of some everywhere,
    Help somebody today!
  4. Some are discouraged and weary in heart,
    Help somebody today!
    Someone the journey to heaven should start,
    Help somebody today!🎵
