Here’s the second in our series of Spiritual Refresher resources – this one created for our event at the National Museum of Scotland in February.
The page is mobile-friendly.
To get the best out of these cards just go around at your own pace. You don’t have to do them in order. You don’t have to finish. It is not a race!
Explore
What new wonder lies round the corner? What is its story? How does it connect with your own?
Pray
What new adventure awaits?
Encounter
Find something you have never seen before. How does encountering the new make you feel?
Pray
Lord, keep me open to new things.

Where has God given me places to rest?

Our God is in heaven; he does whatever he wishes. Their gods are made of silver and gold, formed by human hands. (Psa 115:3-4)

Sometimes with God it seems like we aren’t getting anywhere.
Participating
Find an interactive activity and have a go. You know you want to!

Learn something new
What knowledge will you be taking home today?
Reflect
To be wise you must first have reverence for the LORD. If you know the Holy One, you have understanding.
(Pro 9:10)
Take a moment
Jesus was in the back of the boat, sleeping with his head on a pillow. The disciples woke him up and said, “Teacher, don’t you care that we are about to die?”
(Mar 4:38)
Reflect
Resting in God when all is busy takes discipline
Listen & See
Stand quietly and notice what you can sea and hear
