Run / Rest: A 40 Day Journey Toward Rest

DAY 9 OF 40

When doubt and anxiety makes us want to RUN, Godโ€™s comfort helps us REST. 

๐Ÿ“– ๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—”๐——: Psalm 94:19

๐Ÿ‘“ ๐—ข๐—•๐—ฆ๐—˜๐—ฅ๐—ฉ๐—˜

Anxiety and stress are a big reason why itโ€™s hard for us to rest and experience Godโ€™s peace. Why do you think this verse says that Godโ€™s consolation can bring us joy? 

โœ… ๐—”๐—ฃ๐—ฃ๐—Ÿ๐—ฌ  

Name the biggest thing that is stressing you out right now. What would it look like for God to console you in the midst of what youโ€™re experiencing? 

Write a prayer to God naming the biggest thing that is stressing you right now. Write something like โ€œGod, this is the thing that is causing me the most stress and worry. I want to be consoled by you, comforted by you, and to experience your peace. Show me what that should look like.โ€
