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!
BLESSINGS
JOSEPH PRINCE
