Run / Rest: A 40 Day Journey Toward Rest

DAY 13 OF 40

Are you ready to take a rest from planning to allow God to direct your steps?

๐Ÿ“– ๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—”๐——: Proverbs 16:9

๐Ÿ‘“ ๐—ข๐—•๐—ฆ๐—˜๐—ฅ๐—ฉ๐—˜

Does this verse give us the liberty to not make any plans? Do you think we should never make any plans ever again? 

โœ… ๐—”๐—ฃ๐—ฃ๐—Ÿ๐—ฌ  

Think about how often you get a plan in your head and you move forward with it, only to eventually see the plan fall apart. How can this verse give you peace when you feel like your calendar or your plans are completely overwhelming? Can you find a way to be ok if not everything works out the way you planned it?

Write down some of the plans you have for the next week, month, or year. Tell God if they stress you out, or if it stresses you out to think about these plans falling through. Ask for help trusting that Godโ€™s plan is best. ๐Ÿ’ฏ

About this Plan

Run / Rest: A 40 Day Journey Toward Rest

Stress. Anxiety. Chaos. Hustle. Worry. Busyness. These are words you might be thinking about, talking about, and experiencing pretty regularly. It sometimes feels like weโ€™re stuck running a race to get things done, be the best, do everything, and earn everyoneโ€™s approval. But if you want to keep running, youโ€™ve got to rest. For the next 40 days, what if you made it a habit to rest in Godโ€™s presence?
