Get Rest



As for me, I will continue beholding Your face in righteousness (rightness, justice, and right standing with You); I shall be fully satisfied, when I awake [to find myself] beholding Your form [and having sweet communion with You]. PSALM 17:15

Each evening the sun sets on all of our problems and on all of the mistakes we made that day. But something marvelous happens to us as we sleep—the Lord gives us rest physically, mentally, and emotionally. We are renewed and rejuvenated to face the next day. Today we may wake up with the same problems we had when we went to bed, problems that yesterday we felt we just couldn’t take anymore. But somehow
today, after proper rest and sleep, we think, I can do it; I can face it again. God promises to renew our
strength when we rest in Him.

I had this huge burden and it was really hard to deal with it, even though I know God would work it all out for me. I still had this nagging voice in my head that God will take too long. I waited the situation out and kept on trusting God until I had the peace that surpasses all understanding. I am so confident that whomever comes and questions the decisions I made, will leave the very same if they don't believe my decisions was based on the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
My encouragement to you today is that you will know, no matter what, you are never alone. Trust in the Lord your God and lean not on your own understanding. Acknowledge Him in all your ways and He will direct your paths. (Prov. 3:5...)
I give it all to Jesus because I cannot do this on my own.

In His love
