Royal Living - Refreshment For You
More from the search of Hezekiah's men.
Proverbs 25:13 Trustworthy messengers refresh like snow in summer.They revive the spirit of their employer. New Living Translation
Getting The Message: Everyday there are lessons from friends that escape our attention. How do we hear beyond the message at hand?
One Thing Leads To Another: All around me are co-laborers. Some of the most enjoyable are those that serve with diligence. They have the keen sense to understand the vision of our work and carry it out unattended. They just don't need a lot of instruction to get the job done exactly as needed. Personal discretion guides them.
Taking Back Trust: An article in the Wall Street Journal points to a lack of trust as an impetus behind the "Taking Back" movement. Seems like the '60s all over again to me. Societally, we are questioning our morals, our underpinnings, our business structures, our government, and essentially our selves. Where has trust gone? The mirror holds a ragged face.
Refreshed: Our marketing thrust includes a planning calendar to key clients and friends once a quarter. When we originated the idea, it seemed foreign to my staff. There was a lot of struggle over what it should be and how it should look. Through a few iterations, the piece took great form with a cover letter and some personalization. When it was time for this quarter, the calendar and the letter appeared. I did not have to ask, well no too many times anyway. Yet, this time the task was easy for me. One wrote the letter in my style. It is hard to read it and know I did not write the text. Another crafted the calendar and imbedded personalization that make it seem like you are the only one getting the calendar. A task that was a struggle is now a refreshment.
Impact: Not only was this refreshing to me as the task was made easy, it is a refreshing to our friends. Within a few days of sending the calendars, people across the nation told me how important this simple gift had become. They are putting their most important life events on this calendar. It is kept in the best of places for reference. People are being refreshed across the nation from a team of trustworthy messengers.
Prayer: Strong God of Action, bring light to our day. Somewhere there is a a friend, teacher, boss, leader, pastor, father, or mother that needs the service of a trustworthy messenger. Someone needs to be served. Teach me and teach You to serve in a trustworthy manner. Teach us to be open and caring and trusting. Refresh us with the life of Your Holy Spirit that we might be a refreshing to others.
