| Spiritual
Refreshment, Day by Day A. With the start of Summer, many of us are
spending time working on lawns and flower beds. 1.
By God’s creative design, the plants around us need light, water, and
good soil in which to grow. 2. Without these natural elements, our best
landscaping efforts will ultimately be wasted. B. Using Psalm 1 as our guide, let’s spend a
little bit of time meditating on the spiritual refreshment we will need day by day to make the most of
our God-given time and avoid wasting this season of life. PSALM 1 ¨

“Blessed is the man who_________not in the counsel of the wicked” Þ
“nor____________in the way of sinners” Þ “nor_______in the seat of
scoffers” ¨ Are you getting
the____________that you need? Þ “but
his delight is in the law(or___________________) of the LORD” Þ “and on his law he meditates day and
night” ¨ Are you getting
the_____________that you need? Þ “He
is like a tree planted by streams of water” Þ “that yields its__________in

Þ “The wicked are not so, but are like__________that the wind drives

God-given life being shaped, day by day?
Þ “Therefore the wicked will not__________in the judgment, nor sinners
in the congregation of the righteous” Þ “For the LORD knows the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish” |
