Today as I type these words I am physically tired. I went on a retreat with a Sunday School class and did not get home until late Saturday night. So Sunday I was tired as I went through the regular schedule of services. Sunday night I helped with a youth activity and did not get caught up on my needed rest. So, today as I begin my routine of work I feel tired.
However there is more to the story than the above words. For me the retreat was a spiritual refreshing time. The leadership did a wonderful job of leading and I felt refreshed in many ways. Also the youth activity was wonderful. To see so many young people enjoying themselves and God working in their midst was a pure delight. So, today I feel refreshingly tired and I am happy about it.
