Run / Rest: A 40 Day Journey Toward Rest

DAY 40 OF 40

The pain we experience today will not last forever, and you can rest assured that that is a promise worth running toward. 

๐Ÿ“– ๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—”๐——: Revelation 21:4

๐Ÿ‘“ ๐—ข๐—•๐—ฆ๐—˜๐—ฅ๐—ฉ๐—˜

Revelation is the very last book of the Bible. Itโ€™s the final word. Jesus always has the last word on everything. He has the last word on our identity, our worth, and our value. And because of that, we do not have to run like crazy to accomplish goals to prove our worth to people. We donโ€™t have to work to be the best or to get the best, because Jesus has given us what we need. This verse says that there will be no more death, sorrow, crying, or pain. What else should there be no more of? No more striving? No more hustling to get first place? No more trying to prove ourselves? 

โœ… ๐—”๐—ฃ๐—ฃ๐—Ÿ๐—ฌ  

Can you live with hope knowing that the day is coming where the hustling, striving, working, and stress will all be wiped away? How can you live with eternity in mind? Write a prayer of thanks for the fact that the day of rest is coming where we will be free from the expectations of others. Thank Jesus that the life he came to give you is rich and full.

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?
