Isaiah 30:12

How can you keep your energy, happiness, creativity, and relationships fresh and thriving in the midst of never-ending family demands, career pressures, and the stress of everyday life? In this five-day Bible plan based on her book Sacred Rest, Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith gives the weary permission to embrace rest, set boundaries, and seek sanctuary without any guilt, shame, or fear.

Have you ever tired of waiting for God and taken things into your own hands? Have you ignored wisdom and truth in favor of quick, easy solutions? In Isaiah 30, the nation of Israel did just that. Join Nkosinathi Mbuyazi for this five-day plan exploring God’s call to His people, and to us, to return to Him, and discover all that’s promised if we accept this remarkable invitation.

Join us on this journey to deepen your relationship with Jesus. This is part one of eight in the "Jesus, I Need You" series by Thistlebend Ministries. See also Jesus, I Need You (companion prayer).

Jesus offers abundant life to those who follow him, but many Christians are stuck in the try-harder life instead. This seven-day study beckons readers into the garden and invites them to listen for the heart of God. Just as plants thrive under the care of a skilled gardener, we’ll move from surviving to thriving as we embrace God’s good gifts designed to help us flourish.
