Can You Really Truly Rest In God


“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."Matthew 11:28


That is a question I asked myself one night when listening to a Lectio 365 devotion. Can I rest no matter what and do I rest?Resting meaning letting go of burdens wearing you down. Do I do this? Can I do this? 


Is God truly the strength of your life? Then if He is and you believe it then let Him be that strength. I am talking to myself now too not just my readers. 


You can’t have true rest in your life if you say you have surrendered but keep picking up the burdens all over again. God wants to help you but you have to want to be helped. What are you mulling over in your mind and why is it so hard to let God have it so you can indeed trust He is working. Go be at peace. Trust God. 


PRAYER: I thank you Lord for your constant protection over me yet when I fail to let you be totally in control I am restless. Help me trust you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
