"I rejoice over the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because they have supplied what was lacking on your part.  For they have refreshed my spirit and yours.  Therefore acknowledge such men." -I Corinthians 16:17-18 (NASB)
Christmas and New Year's help us remember the importance of family and friends.  We often make time to visit with each other.  In good spirits, we may share a meal or we may just spend quality time enjoying the company of each other.  These times together can help us relax and refresh.

When writing I Corinthians, Paul made a point acknowledge others and their role in helping God's mission and in refreshing His spirit.  Whether with family, friends, or our brothers and sisters in Christ, we can be renewed and refreshed by the spirits of others and in their contributions to God's mission and to our lives.  We can thank God for those refreshing people that He puts in our lives to keep us moving forward for Him!


Take time to thank God for refreshing people in your life and let them know it!

Prayer:
Dear God-

Thank You for those that You put in my life that refresh my spirit and keep me moving forward for Your Kingdom.  Help me to acknowledge those that help me and allow me to be one that can, in turn, refresh the spirit of others.  In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
