No created thing continues by itself. "You renew the face of the earth," was the Psalmist's utterance. (see Psalm 104:30) Even the trees, which do not wear themselves with care, nor shorten their lives with labour, must drink of the rain of heaven and suck from the hidden treasures of the soil. The cedars of Lebanon, which God has planted, (Psalm 104:16) only live because day by day they are full of sap freshly drawn from the earth. Neither can a man's life be sustained without renewal from God. Just as it is necessary to restore from the depletion of the body by the frequent meal, so we must restore from the depletion of the soul by feeding upon the Book of God, or by listening to the preached Word, or by the soul-fattening table of the ordinances. like the Holy Communion. How depressed are our graces when the means are neglected! How poor and starving some saints are who live without the diligent use of the Word of God and secret prayer! If our piety can exist without God, it is not of divine creating; it is only a dream; for if God had begotten it, it would wait upon Him as the flowers wait upon the dew. Without constant restoration, we are not ready for the perpetual assaults of hell, or the stern afflictions of Heaven, or even for the struggles within. When the whirlwind shall be loosed, woe to the tree that has not sucked up fresh sap, and grasped the rock with many intertwisted roots. When storms arise, woe to the mariners that have not strengthened their mast, nor cast their anchor, nor sought the haven. If we suffer the good to grow weaker, the evil will surely gather strength and struggle desperately for the mastery over us; and so, perhaps, a painful desolation, and a lamentable disgrace may follow. Let us draw near to the footstool of Divine Mercy in humble supplication, and we shall realize the fulfilment of the promise, "Those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength.." (Isaiah 41:31) ~ Time for Reflection ~ Stay Spiritually Renewed We must seek God daily through prayer, Scripture, and worship to renew our strength. Let us depend on Him as our source of spiritual vitality, standing firm against life’s challenges. Amen. ~~ Hope you have enjoyed and have been inspired by this evening's devotional by Charles Spurgeon. Please also check out this morning's devotional as well.
