Tune in any time of the day to Faith Music Radio for uplifting Christian music and talk.

Here is today's podcast in blog post form. :)

One time, I was at work...I took out my contacts and put them in their case. Well, it was very dim lighting and I didn't realize that one of the contacts didn't make it into the case. The next morning, I went to put it in and it wasn't there. Thankfully, I was able to find it on the carpet in the place where I had taken them out.

Dried up...shriveled. So, I put it in the case with contact solution and in just a little bit, it was restored back to its normal state.

Is that you this morning? Do you feel dried up? Do you need renewed?

I admit. I remember back in March-May of this year - My schedule and circumstances had taken a toll on me during those seven weeks. A combination of living in a hotel...my home being in disarray...a different daily schedule...working 36 hours overnight weekly...daily demands...it all dried up my spirit.

Everything around me was taking the moisture from my spirit and I was slowly drying up.

Don't let things suck the life giving moisture from your spirit! You need renewal every day to keep your spirit refreshed.

The first thing I try to do every morning...coffee and my devotions. Give yourself the water of life.

"But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life."

Have your circumstances dried you up? Have you stopped watering your soul? Renew your soul starting today.

And that’s today’s challenge!

Renew your soul today by doing these five simple things…

1. Read your Bible.

2. Make a small to do list of 5 things to accomplish today.

3. Do something for someone.

4. Do something for 15 minutes you enjoy.

5. Make a list of 10 things that are your current favorite things.

Will you take the challenge?

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure. 100 Days of Joy and Strength. I was struggling last night. Darkness seemed to overwhelm me. The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope." Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;" II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me. Do not gloat over me, my enemy! Though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light." Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."...

Ten Tips for Sunday School Teachers

Ideas for Sunday School Teachers: 1. Write a note to each student and mail it to their home. 2. Visit the child in his home and bring a small treat. 3. Make a special treat once a month for your students on Sunday. 4. Have a Sunday School class activity on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. 5. Pray for your students. 6.
