Tuesday morning, I woke up at 5:45 am, which is very late for me. I usually get up at 4 am MWF to take my dear wife to dialysis. But it was Tuesday, and I didn’t have anything special going on, and I didn’t have to get up, so I didn’t. I went back to sleep. Oh, yes, I did! Then I woke up again at 7:15 am, had the same pleasant thought, and went back to sleep. I finally got up at 8:13 am! But I felt so refreshed! I think my body was trying to tell me, “You need more sleep.” Hey, have you ever realized that you had a coldness towards the good Lord? Have you ever suddenly thought, “I’m not as close to God as I should be, as close to God as I want to be.”? Well, that’s the Holy Spirit nudging you to renew your relationship with the Lord. So, when you have that feeling of estrangement from God, take a few extra minutes to read a few extra verses in your Bible and linger a little longer in your prayer time. Just like me taking a few extra minutes of refreshing sleep, take a few extra minutes of refreshing fellowship with the good Lord. Jesus said in John 16:13, “Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth …” Let the Holy Spirit guide you … and He will!
