Matthew 11:28 “Come to me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take up my yoke and learn from me, because I am lowly and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."
Happy New Year Friends! In the first podcast episode of 2022, I encourage you to create the most important and formative habit you can ever form... that is finding rest in Jesus! So before you go full steam ahead on those big goals you're pursuing, make sure that you are taking time to refresh, replenish and restore through Rest in Jesus who is the center of everything we do or plan to do. We were not created to go, go, go! In fact the very first book of the Bible, Genesis 2:2 says, "By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work." If God the Creator and Author of Life took time to rest, shouldn't you? What's wonderful about resting in Jesus is that he renews our strength, refreshes our faith, and restores our spirit. Christ never meant for your to carry your burdens alone, and in Mathew 11:28 he gives us an invitation to come to find rest in him.
Listen in as I dive into why we should find rest in Jesus and how it keeps us in alignment with our identity in Christ; how the Lord replenishes our spiritual tank and the ways he restores and cleanses us so we stay in relationship with him. You will see how much the scriptures support us finding rest in Jesus and what happens to us when we make the choice to take time to be in his presence. I also give 7 Practical Ways for You to Find Rest in Jesus in your day-to-day life.
