a refreshing saint

Half way through my three mile run yesterday morning it started raining. Actually it poured and by the time I got home I was drenched.

Although winded and soaked from the workout, I felt extremely cooled and refreshed walking around in the garage before heading for the shower.

Don’t you just love the feeling of being refreshed physically or emotionally … and isn’t it a joy to hang someone who is a “refresher” ?

The Bible often refers to those of us that claim to be a follower of Jesus as saints. And Paul had this to say about saints that demonstrate a refreshing love toward others:

“Your love has given me great joy and encouragement, because you, brother, have refreshed the hearts of the saints.” Philemon 7

I wonder if people consider me a refreshing saint or a complaining sap ? How do others see you ?
