Seeking a Deeper "Rest" (and an update)
April 18, 2016
In my post last week I touched on Mathew 16:24 about taking up our cross and standing for Jesus. My friends, I feel like Holy Spirit is sitting me on the subject of rest as a continuation of standing for Jesus. In fact, Abba whispered to my heart just recently. “Rest in Me, daughter.”
Now I’m on a quest to more fully understand what He is calling me to do above and beyond what I have come to understand His rest to be, to trust in Him for my provision, my life, etc. I will share that in one of the many clues He sending my way, on verse is resonating in explaining this deep stirring in my spirit.
Deep calls unto deep at the noise of Your waterfalls;
All Your waves and billows have gone over me. — Psalm 42:7 NKJV
His deep is calling to my deep, dear friends. Your servant is listening, Lord! So as I seek wisdom and understanding in great depth and continue to research the Bible, share your thoughts with me, dear friends.
How or in what way has God called you to rest in Him?
Miller Update!
My friends, I again want to thank you for your prayers for me and my family. My shoulder recovery is nearing the end! Yay! I’m now strength building and feeling almost back to normal. And it’s moved very quickly. Praise Jesus!
And the insurance company has approved the CT scans for Leslie. Those are scheduled for April 25th. As I said before I am standing on Isa. 58:11 for her. AND, God has given me another verse through one our SUMite sisters to continue to reassure us that Leslie will be fine.
Yet I am confident I will see the Lord ’s goodness while I am here in the land of the living. — Psalm 27:13
GOD IS SO FAITHFUL!
Lord, we stand on Your faithful promises, and they are our shield and protection! (Ps. 91) In the mighty name of Jesus, amen!
