Fast: One Meal and TV/Streaming
Scripture:
“For anyone who enters Gods rest, also rests from their works, just as God did from His. Let us therefore make every effort to enter that rest.” Hebrews 4:10–11a NIV
Thought of the day:
What do you think of when you think of rest? Perhaps you think of sleep, vacation, a day at the park, or time off work? Although, those things are all well and good, the rest they bring is only temporary at best. There is a Higher rest that only comes from being in God‘s presence. Notice the verse says therefore make every effort to enter into that rest. God‘s rest doesn’t come without effort as we come a little closer. Things begin to fight to steal that rest. We must persevere until we come to a rest stop (the place where our mind has stopped racing, and our heart (spirit) is at peace. This is where we begin to hear God speak. What will He talk to you about.
Prayer:
Father, help me to enter into Your rest. Show me how to still my mind. I am doing my best, but sometimes it doesn’t feel like I’m getting anywhere. Help me rest in Your presence; assure me that You are here. In Jesus name I pray, amen.
