The promise of renewal


In Him we live, and move, and have our being. Acts 17:28

This text is a formula for maintaining physical, mental, and spiritual energy. The tension and pressure of modern
living draws wearily upon our energies. But here we have a renewal method. The text reminds us that God created us and that He can constantly and automatically re-create us. The secret is to maintain contact with God. This channels vitality and energy and constant replenishment into our being. Every day, preferably about midafternoon when an energy lag usually comes, try repeating this text while visualizing yourself as “plugged” into the spiritual line. Affirm that God’s recreative energy is restoring strength and power to every part of your body, your mind, and your soul.
-- Dr. Norman Vincent Peale
