Meditate
On
Let
us labor therefore to enter into that rest…
Hebrews
4:11, KJV
Work At Resting
There
are so many things to do every day—prepare breakfast, drive the kids to school,
finish up your presentation, chair a meeting, meet a client, counsel a friend…It’s
like we’re always working on something!
Actually,
if there’s one thing that we ought to prioritize working on every day, it is
working at being at rest! Sounds like an oxymoron, doesn’t it? How can you work
at resting?
Yet,
that is exactly what God wants us to do. Given our inclination to work, worry
and rush to finish all our tasks every day, He wants us to prioritize spending
time with Him, and letting His love and words of grace flush out all our
agitations, worries and fears.
My
friend, make laboring to enter God’s rest number one on your to-do list every
day. When you are at rest, God’s grace can flow unhindered through you to
accomplish—with ease—all that needs to be accomplished for the day.
Rest is His
provision for you today. Receive it and thank Him for it!
