Refine and Restore: Revive Your Heart, Release Your Purpose
by
Rachel C. SwansonIf you ever feel dry and distant in your walk with God, you’re not alone. In Refine and Restore, Rachel Swanson addresses the elephant in the room that we all experience, but few talk about. Ignoring the dry spells can leave us feeling alone and stuck. Only by acknowledging and walking through them will we discover the abundant life that Jesus talks about all throughout Scripture.
How do we do this? It’s a process:
Refine
Refining is an act of confession. When we confess our sins, big and small, God strips away the things that hinder us.
Restore
Restoration comes by truth. We’re all prone to believing lies about ourselves and God that leave us discouraged and disillusioned. Only one thing can restore us—the truth of God’s Word.
Revive
When we confess our sins and weaknesses and restore our hearts and minds to the truth, our lives are revived and freed to live the abundant life.
Release
Through the process of refining, restoration, and revival, we are able to release our purpose in the world.
