Bible Verse of The Day – 7-13-18

Genesis 2:2 (NKJV) 2 And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done.

Resting is hard for some people, but it is a necessity.

Different personalities may find it hard to take a break and not work. For example, people that are goal-driven usually find it hard.

People that may be greedy usually don’t like to rest because they are afraid they might lose out on something if they rest.

People that are very active and like to be moving all the time don’t like the thought of sitting still.

But rest is required if we want to be productive and stay balanced in our lives.

Having a rested mind and body will help us to get much more done than if we are tired and stressed.

I’ll admit that when I’m tired I make mistakes. I cannot be running on empty and produce good quality anything. Balanced REST will produce the best! Amen.

A simple little reminder today; be sure to get some rest.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-16-18

Genesis 2:2 (NKJV) 2 And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done.

If God Himself took a rest, then so must we also rest.

Some of us never stop. We don’t know how to. We keep going and going. Even on our days off we are trying to be productive, making sure we get things done.

Work without rest is not good. Even though our minds may feel better about what we have accomplished, our physical bodies need rest.

Sometimes we forget we are only human and not some kind of super hero. We need to take some time to smell the flowers, breathe the fresh air, look up at the sky, sit outside and listen to the birds, the ocean waves or just do something like walking, hiking, bike riding or fishing!

Take a break. Go and do something where we don’t have to think.

Life and its demands can sometimes get very overwhelming. It’s OK for us to put on the brakes and say, “I need to have a few minutes, a few hours or maybe a few days to just sit. No schedule, no work, and no phone”.

Do we do this? Or do we push through, exhaust ourselves even further, ending up sick, cranky and burned out?

Rest is important. Our health is important to God. Go and get some rest! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-10-17

Romans 8:37 (NKJV) 37 Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.

Life and its problems can take its toll on us. It can cause a spiritual and a natural exhaustion as we face certain situations, even though God tells us in His word that we are more than conquerors through Him.

It doesn’t mean that our spirit, mind and soul don’t need a place to go and find rest and shelter. Part of conquering things through Him, our Lord, is learning to pull away and go somewhere quiet.

For some, this may be a much-needed vacation. For others it is just a drive to a spot that we know is quiet and peaceful. It could also be as simple as walking out into our own back yard and sitting for a while, unwinding and reflecting on God and His blessings.

Getting to that quiet spot where no one can reach us is so important.

It’s hard to believe, but taking rest at the right time can actually build us up in helping us to be those conquerors.

Take time today and go to a quiet spot where we can find rest, where we can let God have us all to Himself, where we can listen and where we can get things off our chest. God is that special Someone who wants to hear what we have to say and really cares about how we feel.

Find that place of rest and take shelter in Him today.
