Find Rest In God

have you ever had a rested body – but still felt like your soul had nothing left to give?

maybe you’ve had the luxury of an afternoon nap – but you’ve still woken up feeling drained?
have you ever had a day of netflix binge watching – and by the end of it, you’re still tired?
have you ever gotten to the end of a holiday – and instead of feeling refreshed, you feel like you need another two weeks off?

this is because, although these things can provide rest for our bodies, our souls are designed to need something more than just natural rest and entertainment. our souls are designed by God Himself, so they can only find refreshing and rest in Him. ✨

God is so faithful, and His presence is so rich. it’s life-giving and as we spend time resting in Him – the source of all life Himself, our souls are refreshed, and our spirits are strengthened. 💕

King David said it like this in psalm 27:8, “my heart has heard you say, ‘come and talk with me.’ and my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.'”

today, God is saying to you, come and talk with me, put away your to-do list, take time out of the business of life and come and spend time resting in me. I pray your response is the same as King David, Lord – I’m coming!! 💗

here’s some ways you can spend time resting in God today:
✨ set time aside where there are no distractions
✨ spend time talking to Him
✨ ask Him to refresh you and strengthen you
✨ spend time reading His Word
✨ spend time in worship
✨ spend time mediating on his promises

praying that as you spend time in God’s presence today that your soul will find rest in Him. 🌸
