Resting in Jesus

Verse of the Month

“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will

give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me,

for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 

 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

(Matthew 11:28-30 NKJV)

Scripture Reading: Matthew 11:25-30

Resting in Jesus

There are times when the issues of life make it hard to rest.  Our minds take us to places we constantly battle, causing us to doubt God.

Instead of trusting God is working things out for our best, the devil feeds us lies that steal our peace.  It's time to make a change and start living in the rest Jesus provided for believers.

As soon as you feel unrest ask yourself, "What have I allowed in my thoughts?  Is there something I'm harboring that's working against resting in God's Word?"

Stop meditating on the problem and meditate on what God said in the scriptures.  Give up worrying and trying to figure everything out for yourself. 

God has a good plan for your life and it includes rest.  Why not try it right now? (cw)
