Hey Friends,
This is the word that I have for us today:
REST.
Yep. That's it. Don't worry about tomorrow or this year, what you should be doing, starting, launching... It's ok if you don't see the whole picture; you don't need to. God will make his plans unfold this year. You don't have to strive, or worry. I hear Him saying, "You won't miss your opportunity. I promise."
“Be still, and know that I am God.”
God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging.
There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy place where the Most High dwells.
God is within her, she will not fall;
God will help her at break of day.
Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall;
he lifts his voice, the earth melts.
The Lord Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.
Come and see what the Lord has done,
the desolations he has brought on the earth.
He makes wars cease
to the ends of the earth.
He breaks the bow and shatters the spear;
he burns the shieldsd with fire.
He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.”
The Lord Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.
Psalm 46
So instead of worrying and striving, take a deep breath, smile, and know that you are in the hands of a good, good Father. Amen.
