Rest.

Such a great feeling!

Many of us don’t do it enough.

Some of us can’t remember how it feels to be rested.

Our days are filled with rushing from one responsibility to the next.

And our nights are consumed with anxious thoughts and worry about tomorrow.

No rest.

God tells King David in 1 Chronicles 22 that David will have a son who will be a man of peace and rest.  And God promises that he will give Solomon ‘rest from all his enemies on every side.’ (vs 9).

God promises us this same thing many times in his word.

He will give us rest.

He will give us peace.

Do not worry, our Father tells us.

Over and over.

Peace……

and rest.

Yes, Abba Father.
