Rest for the Weary

Topics to Dig Into

Who is He?

What is God like? Who is this man Jesus? How can we understand the Holy Spirit?

The Visible God

God is present and active in our lives, often working through people and ‘coincidences’. Thank and praise Him!

Making it Practical

Following Jesus in today’s world can be challenging. But living according to Jesus’ teaching is incredibly worthwhile. Call it life-changing.

He Knows You

God’s love is unconditional. He knows our hearts and continually invites us into relationship.

Ah-Ha!

Learning about the culture and language of Bible times can reveal new meaning in familiar scriptures. Let’s call them ah-ha moments.

Only in returning to me and resting in me will you be saved. In quietness and confidence is your strength. Isaiah 30:15 (NLT)

Boy do I need this scripture today! I am one stressed gal, running around like a maniac. I haven’t been very good company lately either. My insides feel panicked with all that needs doing. All good things. I keep waiting for a moment to breath, rest, and recharge, but it hasn’t happened yet.

Sigh.

God is telling me to sloooooow down. Rest. Prioritize my quiet time in His presence. By investing in rest and quiet I will gain strength.

Has your September been nutty? Is God telling you to return to Him and rest quietly in His presence?

I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing.

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.
