We Grow: A Journey of Drawing Closer to God

DAY 16 OF 365

Day 16 of 365

Job’s frustrations reveal his exhaustion as he grapples with life’s injustices. In Matthew 11, Jesus invites all who are weary to come to Him, promising rest and peace beyond what the world can offer. This invitation is for each of us, and it is the Holy Spirit who draws us to Jesus, comforting us and reminding us of God’s presence in our struggles.

When we bring our burdens to God, the Spirit renews our strength, enabling us to experience a peace that surpasses understanding. True rest is found in trusting God’s love and provision, which the Spirit continually reassures us of.

Today, let the Spirit lead you into God’s rest. Lay your burdens down and allow Him to refresh and renew your soul, filling you with peace.
