Too often, we fail to revive and to renew ourselves.When this happens, we are not able to perform the quality of work, nor provide the type of service we should give to those in our ever expanding circle of influence. This poem reminds us that we need to take frequent time outs for revival and renewal.

The Soul's Revival My soul needs reviving As I travel through this life. To rid its self of the pain,the misery and strife Thrust upon it along the way. It needs a revival, a renewal of some kind To continue carrying the many heavy burdens it finds Along life's uncertain and winding road Where burdens are such a heavy load To bear. My soul needs reviving! Day in and day out As I go here, there, helping, Serving, living, and moving about. Too often, we fail to revive, and to renew ourselves. When this happens, we are not able to perform the quality of work, nor provide the type of service we should give to those in our ever expanding circle of influence.This poem reminds us that we need to take frequent time outs for revival and renewal.

Your poem says it all Barbara. You're right. We get so involved with our daily struggles that we often fail to take self-renewal into consideration. Great reminder.

Dear Barbara, you are right. Everyone needs renewal of the spirit, a cleansing process where prayer and meditation are keys to deep self-reflection, to renew the vows of faith, to strengthen our belief and finally, revive our weary souls. A very uplifting and inspirational write. Blessings to you.

Love,
Sheri
