Nothing like a little time away…

chrisreadingbible…to refresh and revitalize your spirit.  For me, this is one of the best ways Romans 12:1-2 plays out in my life.  This is how I experience “the renewing of your mind“.

I find it encouraging to note the times in scripture when Jesus pulled away and sought solitude.  Obviously Jesus wasn’t anti-social…BUT he did live in an entirely human body like me (he was probably a little thinner)…AND our bodies and our minds need rest!  If Jesus (who is God) took time to refresh, how can we think we require any less??

To be at the top of our game, we need times of refreshing.  For me, it’s a few days hiking and camping.  What is it for you?
