Run / Rest: A 40 Day Journey Toward Rest

DAY 6 OF 40

Do you ever just want to FLY AWAY for a minute of peace, quiet, and rest? 

๐Ÿ“– ๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—”๐——: Psalm 55:6-7

๐Ÿ‘“ ๐—ข๐—•๐—ฆ๐—˜๐—ฅ๐—ฉ๐—˜

Why would people want to fly away and escape everything?

โœ… ๐—”๐—ฃ๐—ฃ๐—Ÿ๐—ฌ  

Have you ever wanted to just run away from everything youโ€™re facing because you feel overwhelmed? What is overwhelming you right now?  What do you wish you could escape and run away from? Is it the same thing that is overwhelming you? 

It would be great to ask God to help us fly away from whatever is overwhelming us, but thatโ€™s not always possible. Pray quietly and silently to yourself that God would help you face whatever is overwhelming you. Name the thing that is overwhelming you and write it on a piece of paper. Then fold it into a paper airplane and send it flying. This is a picture of letting go and allowing God to take care of you.

About this Plan

Run / Rest: A 40 Day Journey Toward Rest

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?
