"He who cannot rest, cannot work; he who cannot let go, cannot hold on; he who cannot find footing, cannot go forward." Harry Emerson Fosdick
We have an amazing gift in Jesus; we receive salvation when we accept and give our lives to Him! But a lot of us aren't claiming the peace that comes with this promise. We live hurried, frazzled lives and feel anxiety about the future. We work ourselves too hard and try too intently to please others. As children of God, our hope, our salvation, our rest and our peace do NOT start when we die and go to heaven- they start here in the present! Immerse yourself in Him today. Feel his comfort and calm. Make yourself take time for rest. Fill your mind with God's word and your heart with His praise. When we choose Christ in our every moment, we can find rest and peace in Him. Don't ignore the blessings He is offering you today! Embrace rest, and see how much more you can actually accomplish for His glory when you are refreshed.
"My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from Him." Psalm 62:1
