Ok I didn't do all 7 days but it is a week and I am finishing this challenge. Not strong. Not perfect. But finishing nonetheless. Believe me when I say I wanted to stop with the last post. I would be the exactly what I described fearful, tired, discouraged and ready to give up. That would not be a good way to end. Besides, it's not about me. It's about the pressing on my heart last week Tuesday morning that "They need to know." Still don't know who "they" are but I am trusting Jesus does. Isaiah 55:11 says the word will not return empty but will accomplish what God desires and will achieve the purpose He desires. So I am believing God.
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30
"The LORD replied, "My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest."-Exodus 33:14
"Be at rest once more, O my soul, for the LORD has been good to you." Psalm 116:7
"Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls." Jeremiah 6:16
"My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him." Psalm 62:1
"He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the Almighty." Psalm 91:1
I am going to let those verses speak for themselves and let myself get to bed at a decent time this evening.
Thank you for letting serve in this way.
Jesus, we come to you, weary and burdened. We long to be joined to you. Thank you that you never leave us to carry our burdens alone. Thank you that you never ask us to carry more than we can bear. We find our rest in You. In your sweet, precious Name, Amen.
