READ:
BIBLE IN A YEAR
AUDIO VERSION
Paul captures the heart of fellowship and God in our lives. He was writing to the Believers in Rome, expressing his desire to visit them. But, he acknowledged that his plans were ultimately in the hands of God.
that I may come to you with joy by the will of God, and may be refreshed together with you. Romans 15:32
Notice how Paul desired to visit but to come with joy. His journey was not only about arriving; it was about being in the will of God at every step. That is a powerful reminder for us today. We all plan, but how often do we invite God into the process? Living aligned with His will brings a deep sense of peace and joy, even when circumstances are uncertain.
Paul also wrote about being refreshed together. That is the beauty of community, we are meant to encourage, uplift, and refresh one another. In a world that often leaves us feeling drained and isolated, fellowship with other Believers becomes a source of strength. When we gather in His name, whether in church, in small groups, or even over coffee with a friend, God works through those moments to renew our spirits.
Think about when you have shared your life with someone who prayed for you or when a simple conversation with a fellow Believer left you feeling lighter. That kind of refreshment Paul talks about is a mutual encouragement that points us back to Jesus.
Today, take a moment to surrender your plans to God. Trust Him to lead you joyfully, even if His timing does not match yours. Make time to connect with others in a way that brings refreshment to both of you. Whether it is a phone call, a prayer, or an encouraging word, God can use you to get His peace to someone else. When we align our lives with His will and invest in the community, we will find the joy and refreshment Paul spoke about.
Heavenly Father, I thank You I am not alone on this pathway of life, as You are always with me. Your Holy Spirit is always there to lead, guide, and direct me in any situation I may face. Thank You, Father God, I am not alone. I ask for You to lead me to those who need to hear Your Words of wisdom today, and in the days to come. Thank you, Father God, for using me to be a light to others. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.
