The Lord’s Rest Comes with His Assignment
I heard the Spirit of the Living, patient God say,
Rest in Me. Be at ease in Me, in My Presence. Calm your spirit, and quiet your soul and just be with Me. You won’t win any awards in Heaven for always checking off your to-do list or for maximizing your doing. That’s not an accomplishment in My eyes. At some point productivity becomes its own accomplishment, and all the while you are running, you are missing out on valuable time and connection with Me. You are missing out on My perfect rest and My wisdom on how to take on your day, on how to see all of the pieces on your list.
