The strongest of us can face situations that leave us feeling overwhelmed, afraid, alone and exhausted. But the Lord is our shepherd - and he restores our souls!

Let's co-operate with him as he does what is necessary to restore, refresh and renew us:

- Let's be wise with our physical health, especially if we are physically run down.

- Let's make time and space to spend significant time in God's presence.

- Let's pour out our hearts to him, knowing that he cares.

- Let's be attentive, listening for what he has to say to us, however he chooses to speak.

- And let's embrace his redirection, instruction and correction.

These things will lead us back to wholeness and effectiveness - as he restores our soul!

Psalm 23:1-3, 1 Kings 19
