Rest for my soul
This weekend Abbie and I are spending time in Simi Valley with her family.
Home-cooked dinners, early bedtimes, late wake-up calls, comfy beds,
garage sale-ing, lazy afternoons, frozen yogurt. Yes please.
I am praising the Lord for an incredible roommate to spend this time with. I am praising the Lord because He is so faithful to give me rest in the midst of my crazy life (that I love, I might add). This is the kind of rejuvenation that only comes from the Giver of Life itself.
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." ~Matthew 11:28-31
Do you need for rest for your soul?
Run to Jesus.

MY Jesus.
Need a reminder of the God we serve? This will do the trick.
Sometimes we stress over the most ridiculous things. Sin has a way of puffing us up in our own mind and shrinking God down. In all reality, we serve a God that created the universe and currently sustains each and every one of us.
So, on those days when you lose sight of the Almighty King, remember that the God of the Bible--our God--is mighty and powerful and so very faithful.
