Get the appRun / Rest: A 40 Day Journey Toward RestSample
Are you ready to rest knowing that God has put people in your life to care for you?
๐ ๐ฅ๐๐๐: Mark 2:1-5

What actions did the paralytic man take in order to be healed? Did he take any action? Or did he rely on his friends to help get him to Jesus to be healed?
โ ๐๐ฃ๐ฃ๐๐ฌ
Weโve looked already at Jesusโ need to be alone with God to be refreshed and restored, but now we shift our attention to someone who wasnโt able to help himself. He didnโt work to get what he needed, instead he relied on the generosity of his friends. What can this story teach you about trusting and resting that God has put people in your life to care for you? Sometimes we need to rest while others run on our behalf.
Say a prayer of thanks for the generous people God has placed in your life. Pray that you would have the courage to surrender to Godโs care for you through others.

For the next 40 days, what if you made it a habit to rest in Godโs presence?
