In the Wilderness: Reflections for Lentنموونە

Get Some Rest

Hello, my friend. Thank you for joining us. There's a reason why you're here. God is saying to you today, “Get some rest. Your stressful situation is in My hands now.” Worry, confusion, frustration, every bit of stress is in God's hands. Here's a comforting verse written by King David in Psalm 139:10: "Even there, Your hand shall lead me and Your right hand shall hold me.”

Did you hear that? Even there, in the midst of your most stressful moments, God will lead you. He will hold you. In His presence, all stress melts away, and you find peace. God is saying, “Get some rest, beloved. Let Me handle the things that are burdening you.”

Gracious God, I am full of worry and stress about life. I need Your comforting presence today. I need to find rest in You. I cannot carry these burdens alone. Thank You for leading me in the way I should go. Thank You for holding me with Your righteous right hand. In Your Son, Jesus, I have peace. Amen.

Rest now in the Lord. Hand your burdens to Him.

May you abide in Christ.
