Get some rest

So, things have been sort of tiring lately. We have had a lot going on and it seems that every time we turn around, we are being hit with something else. There have been times that I have said, "If I could just get a breath." It's busy...

And, there have been lots of concerns; I won't name any in particular. We have had a lot to be considered and a lot of decisions that had to be made. We have prayed for wisdom and discernment in each of those decision-making processes. There have been times that all I could do is collapse in the bed and fall asleep before my head hit the pillow. There have been others when my mind wouldn't let go and I would lie awake all night thinking things through.

Today's word is Matthew 11:28, NIV, which tells us where to find some rest. It reads, "Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."

We grow tired because we try to carry all the weight ourselves. I know because that is my nature. Now, I have prayed about it. I have asked for wisdom and discernment. I have relied on GOD to give the answer. But, then, I pick the entire load up and try to carry it all myself again. Now, GOD expects us to do our part; He expects us to put feet to our prayers. But, we will only find true rest when we allow Him to work through us.

Feeling tired? Need some rest? Why not come to JESUS and find some rest?

Be Blessed,
