Finding Rest in God's Timing
As we journey through life, waiting for God to bless us with our heart's desires can be challenging. It's easy to feel discouraged and lose heart in the waiting season. However, we're reminded in Matthew 11:28-30 that we can find rest in God's timing.
Jesus says, "Come to 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."
So how do we find rest in God's timing? Here are three simple steps:
Surrender our desires to God and trust His timing.
Seek His presence through prayer and reading His word.
Surround ourselves with a community of believers who can encourage and support us in our journey.
Let's remember that God's timing is perfect, and He knows what's best for us. As we wait on Him, let's find rest in His loving arms.
As we move into the last days before it’s officially Spring, I want us to trust God completely for the next season.
Will you pray with me today?
Dear Father God,
Thank you for this day.
We are thankful for being alive.
We come to you asking for rest.
We want to take on your yoke
And learn from you.
Give us your gentle and humble heart.
Bring rest to those of your people
Who are weary and burdened.
For you told us that your yoke is easy
And your burden is light.
Watch over our hearts today.
Grant us a complete day in you.
Bless this weekend.
In Jesus’ name, we pray.
Amen.
Blessings, Ya Rose
