Choose to rest.

“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” Matthew‬ ‭11‬:‭28‬ ‭NKJV‬‬.

“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus” Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭6‬-‭7‬ ‭NKJV.‬‬

As long as you have done what God has asked you to do, you can rest well because you know what your end will be. Your end will be good because He is good. Based on His character alone, you can settle your soul, live undisturbed and without heaviness, knowing you will have a God-willed outcome.

Finding rest requires us to humble ourselves and come to Jesus, leaving the results to Him. Leaving the heavy lifting to Him. You’ve done what you know to do about it. Refuse to walk in anything but joy and peace. You’ve obeyed God and done your part. God says, now step back and let Him do His.

Prayer: Father, I give You praise today. I thank You that I don’t have to fight or struggle with this. Help me to do what You said, and learn to rest knowing You will handle it, even when it comes to the hearts of others. Help me to submit to Your will and righteousness. I will do my part. I give You great praise for doing Yours. I trust You, and I choose to abundantly rest. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
