7 Days Of Finding RestMostra
True rest is letting God do the “doing”...
Jesus says in His Word, ““Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”” (see Matthew 11:28-29)
Our God is an infinitely generous God: He gives and forgives, and He surrendered His life for us.
On the cross, Jesus declared, ““It is finished!”” (see John 19:30)
What a declaration! Everything that Jesus needed to accomplish on Earth, He accomplished...
- He carried your burdens, your pain, your sins, your suffering, your sickness.
- He restored to you the privilege of being in relationship with Him and His Father.
- He rekindled your hopes.
Here’s what King David declared: “He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters.” (see Psalm 23:2)
The master of our rest is God. He knows how to lead us there where our souls and bodies can find rest.
Yes...rest, our true happiness, is being close to Jesus, the good Shepherd. True rest is letting God do the “doing.”
If you’d like, you can pray with me right now to release whatever is weighing upon you into His hands…“Lord Jesus, thank You for always being with me and taking care of me. Thank You for Your kind presence each day. Here’s the situation I’m going through [name the situation]. I fully release it to You. By myself, I can’t do anything to fix it. Lord, I’m counting on You, releasing everything to You in good faith. Thank You for Your help and encouragement and for moving in my life today. In Jesus’s name. Amen.”
Thanks for existing!
