Is God at the center of everything in your life? We know that God can transform our lives, but do we really give Him the opportunity to do that? Hi, this is Dorette Schaal with your dailyeword Let’s depend on the Spirit of God fully, 24/7/365 days a year by being fully immersed in the Word of God, and living fully in tune with the Holy Spirit. Do you know that God has more for us than we could think, dream or imagine? You were made for more, so I encourage you go for it, and live the life that God has for you. Here is your encouraging word about more rest for you, today.
Matt 11:28-30 “says come unto me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” What a beautiful scripture. God invites us into his rest. He wants us to experience soul rest. Do you want to receive the rest that God wants to give you? We can see how opposite our life can be from what it could and should be. Our yoke can be hard and our burdens can be heavy. All you have to do is look at the faces of those carrying those heavy burdens, and you can tell that God’s plan is much better for us. God’s plan includes rest! A rest that not only brings sweet sleep at night, but a rest in your soul that you are doing what you are called to do, and living for God, 100%. In those moments when life gets busy, or circumstances seem overwhelming, you can truly experience that soul rest that comes from the quiet confidence of being called to the rest of God. It seems opposite to say you have to work at rest, but in a way you do. It means making provision ahead of time, it means putting it on your day timer, and making rest a priority. When we experience the rest that God has for us, and take time to be still in His presence, we will accomplish much more in the times where we are committed to doing. To be or to do? Well there is a time for both. Doing is much more effective for God when we choose to be in His presence on a regular basis. So are you willing to give up those heavy burdens and experience rest for your soul? It is the best way to live, starting in this moment, today.
