God’s Rest & Recuperation (R&R)

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28 in the King James Version of the Holy Bible) The United States as a whole is suffering from what is called “sleep depravation.” Millions of dollars are being spent on sleep studies in an attempt to solve this malady. Blame is being placed on everything from extra weight to not resting sufficiently. Sleep number beds, special pillows, melatonin, vacation packages and even soothing music are purchased to help us go to sleep. The military has what they call R&R. It is for soldiers to get away from battle and get some much needed rest. Jesus knows our dilemma and He motions us to come to Him. He knows how tired we are. He hears us groaning under the heavy loads we carry. He knows how hard it is to put one step in front of the other at times. Life can be very difficult, but don’t despair – Jesus is the answer. Come to His beckoned call. He knows how to lift your load and makes it easier to bear. You’re not meant to bear it alone.

Prayer: Dear Jesus, I’m so glad you are looking in on the scenes of my life and know when I have reached the end of my proverbial rope. You offer rest for my body and soul. Your rest is better than anything I can purchase. Amen!

Prayer Thoughts

"Prayer is not so much an act as it is an attitude—an attitude of dependency, dependency upon God." ~Arthur W. Pink

Disposable Garbage Disposable Garbage

"We have to get rid of offences, hatred, jealousy, rebellion (has God asked you to do something and you refuse to do it? If you did that to your parents, that would be called disobedience. Continue to act that way, and it would be called rebellion). The Holy Bible says in 1 Samuel 15:23 that, “rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry."
