Do You Have a Restless Spirit?

Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! (Psalm 46:10, New Kings James Version)

Restlessness

When we're trying to get to sleep at night and can', we're restless. When we're waiting on something or someone, we're restless and ready to move on to the next task on our agenda. Do you ever find yourself with a restless spirit? Ladies, open your heart and receive what God has to say to you today.

"My child, be still and know that I am God. Let the clammer and the noise of your life cease. Put your complete focus on me. Put your hurt, your fear, your heavy burdens into my hands and let them go. Put your complete dependence and trust in Me and Me alone. Once you do that, you will find the rest you long for."

Father, teach us all what it means to rest in You. I pray for each reader Lord. I pray that she'll give every weight and hurt over to You so she can rest in You. In Jesus Nane, Amen.

  2. Why do we fight rest? I know I'm like a 2-year-old, stomping my feet and pulling against God as He draws me to rest in Him.

    In today's Shannon Mullins' Bible study she said rest represents trust. Do I trust Him enough to truly rest in Him?

    Your devotion today fit perfectly with God's message to me: Rest.

    Love you and praying for an awesome weekend as you continue to study the art and craft of writing. May He be glorified through your efforts!
