Run / Rest: A 40 Day Journey Toward Rest

DAY 12 OF 40

If you’re going to rush, rush to rest. 

📖 𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗗: Proverbs 19:2

👓 𝗢𝗕𝗦𝗘𝗥𝗩𝗘

What does it mean to be enthusiastic about something without knowledge? If someone does something in haste, it means they do it quickly without thinking things through.  

✅ 𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗟𝗬  

Write down the word “unhurried.” Is there anything that you find yourself doing quickly, without feeling like you gave it your best? Ask God to help you be unhurried this week and bring this word to mind.

Under the word “unhurried,” write a short prayer to thank God for creating rest. Express your gratitude for the fact that God never hurries, even when we may want God to rush.

For the next 40 days, what if you made it a habit to rest in God’s presence?
