True refreshment begins with our relationship with God. It begins spiritually. As Peter puts it in Acts 3:19: “Repent and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.” In Psalm 51, David speaks to God and asks him to “renew a steadfast spirit” (Psalm 51:10) within him. When we feel spiritually empty, God can refresh us and make us spiritually full.\
