Refugium meum (Ps 18:3)


Where do you look for refreshment and relax? Maybe you like reading a book, watching a movie, walking or spending a lot of time with friends. How often do you come to the Lord and ask him for help? When do you usually pray God?
Actually, only the Holy Spirit can revive your soul. Only God can be trusted without any doubt. Only in Jesus Christ, you are able to find true wisdom. As human beings, we look for a quick solution to our problems. We sometimes even do not consider if our acts are in accordance with the precepts of the Lord. We do not realize that the biggest problem is hidden inside us. 
If we are strong and trustful, nothing can destroy our inner peace If we listen to God's words, we do not worry but rejoice in the truth. If we abide in the light of the Holy Spirit, we know what to do precisely. 
However, for the time being, we are not holy enough. We get angry easily. We trust in ourselves more than in the Lord. We have our own solutions besides the truths which come from the Scriptures. For that reason, we are to ask for forgiveness. We need to change our attitude towards life. 
Are we really thirsty for the living water which flows from God? Are we really hungry for the gentle voice of the Holy Spirit? The sound of God's words is sweeter than honey. The spiritual water can satisfy the desires of our hearts. God's message enlightens us and explains everything to us.
