Grace Over Grindনমুনা
The Gift of Grace – Rhythm and Rest
If you’re tired and worn out, it means that you’re working in your own strength versus allowing God’s strength to be made perfect in your weakness in your business. Jesus provides you with this offer -- keep company with Him through your life and work, and He will be your teacher and show you how to work from rest in an unforced rhythm of grace.
Rhythm comes from the Greek word rhythmos that means measured flow or movement. If the rhythm is unforced this simply means it is not forced or imposed, but rather it is a natural flow... and since this is God’s grace we’re talking about, it’s a supernatural flow! In short, when you keep company (abide) with Jesus, He will teach you how to flow supernaturally in your business. That’s one of the beautiful gifts of grace!
If keeping company, or abiding, with Jesus is the prerequisite for learning how to flow supernaturally in your business the next question should be “How do I keep company and abide with Jesus?”
The answer lies in intimacy with Him. It’s keeping a line of two-way conversation going, allowing Him to speak to you through His Word and by Holy Spirit. The answer also lies in working from His rest. Rest is an ongoing awareness of the presence of an unchanging and all-powerful God in your life. It is not something that you have to strive for; it’s simply something that you realize and awaken to. Rest resides on the inside of you because you are one with Christ and there’s no distance between you!
Working by grace helps you avoid making an idol out of hard work and mistaking your identity as being in your work or your achievements versus in Jesus Christ. When you work in His rest and partner with His flow, you won’t allow grinding to make you miss out on God ideas, inspired thoughts, divine downloads, warnings, and course corrections which are all gifts of God’s empowering grace.
