Hold Firmly to God’s Rest

“Let us make every effort to enter that rest [in God] so that no one will fall by following an example of disobedience.” Hebrews 4:11

The Gift: God grants both the present tense and eternal rest to those who “hide” in Him.  It is a simple process that combines a denial of selfish ambition and a choice to live in the contentment that comes in worshiping the true and living God.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I come to You in the name and character of your Eternal Son, Jesus.  Grant me real “rest” today, not a retreat away from the busyness of my life.  I need to find You and to “hide” in You in the middle of my harried life.  I need Your rest. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
