Run / Rest: A 40 Day Journey Toward RestSample
Today, though you face troubling times, you can rest in the knowledge that Jesus brings peace to our troubled hearts.
๐ ๐ฅ๐๐๐: John 14:1-4

Jesus would often remind his disciples to not be troubled, but to trust in him. He gave them hope that he was going ahead of them to prepare a place of peace for them. Itโs because of Jesus' death on the cross and his resurrection that we can be with him in this place he went to prepare for us. What does Jesus mean when he says, โYou know the way to where I am going?โ

How can you go to God when your heart is troubled or when your mind canโt stop thinking about your to-do list? Can you learn to go to run toward God even when you canโt get rid of nagging thoughts? Ask God to give you the courage to share this good news with a friend. Take a moment to share the peace you have experienced through trust in Jesus. Continue to pray that this friend would trust Jesus to care for them, too.
