Rest is more vital than you know. Have you ever stayed so busy that you barely get a few hours of sleep? If you don’t stop to rest your body, you get sick and your body makes you stop. You were not created to go without rest, physically or spiritually.
The most basic functions of our life are ordained by God. Breathing, resting, abiding etc. Don’t dismiss a kind hello, asking someone (and really wanting to know the answer) how they are doing. Have you ever had someone say “I don’t know why I told you that?” I know why, God is using you! When you are available and willing, God can use you every time. God uses people who know their need of Him.
You may never know the incredible impact you have on someone. Every small thing matters. You have no idea what someone may be going through or the way God will direct you to speak into their lives.
When you are connected (abiding) in Christ, what comes out of you, overflowing, is the fruit of the spirit. (Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness and Self Control) You don’t work For God, He works THROUGH you. Be available, be aware of your surroundings. Be Christ walking. Be who YOU are and no one but you.
