Focus on God’s Goodness-Refreshment

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Focus on God’s Goodness is found in Acts 3:19.

Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.

The Gospel brings refreshment to our soul when we humbly receive God’s gift of grace. Jesus is ready to embrace us with open arms when we acknowledge our need for Him to save us from our sins.

God does not despise us when we honestly admit our moral failures. Instead, He helps us to break free from our sins by forgiving us and showing the way forward. He breaks our darkness with His light. He turns our ashes into beauty. He turns our turmoil into peace. He brings rest to our soul with His saving grace.

Refreshment from the Lord reveals the Goodness of God and is a reason to give thanks in the Year of Gratitude.
