SAM 30:4

This devotional is for those who seek true rest in every season of life. Regardless of the moment you are living through, there is rest available, an unshakeable source of peace and joy. Together, we will meditate on Bible verses that will bring understanding and teach us to enjoy this true rest. We will reflect on God's promises and learn to apply them to our lives, discovering that true rest does not depend on external circumstances but on who He is and His word for each one of us.

Is your life characterized by joy? If you’re not sure exactly what that means or would look like, spend the next four days learning from theologian Eugene H. Peterson. Peterson, an author, biblical scholar, and pastor, uncovers the essential nature of joy to the Christian experience. His example, in life as well as in death, was characterized by joy. Find yourself renewed, springing forth no matter the circumstances.

Sometimes our circumstances lead us to believe that God's goodness no longer exists for us. In this four day devotional we will walk through counting blessings, receiving God's love, investing in prayer, and living out His word. Throughout this devotional our prayer is that you awaken to His love.

People need hope. So often, we rely on relationships, money, jobs, or other pursuits that fail to satisfy. Jesus Christ is the one true source of hope that never fails, and the daily devotions in Jesus, Our Perfect Hope, written by beloved pastor and bestselling author Dr. Charles Stanley, will help you seek Jesus first and realize the joy and peace of resting in Him.
