Rest

“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy-laden and overburdened, and I will cause you to rest. [I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls.] Take My yoke upon you and learn of Me, for I am gentle (meek) and humble (lowly) in heart, and you will find rest (relief and ease and refreshment and recreation and blessed quiet) for your souls. For My yoke is wholesome (useful, good—not harsh, hard, sharp, or pressing, but comfortable, gracious, and pleasant), and My burden is light and easy to be borne.”

~~~Matthew 11:28-30 (AMPC)~~~

“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

~~~Matthew 11:28-30 (ESV)~~~

Trusting Holy Spirit to Change Both Your Hearts & Minds

August 10, 2021August 10, 2021 taylorjamesalbert

“The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.”

~~~Exodus 14:14 (ESV)~~~

“Yes, each of us who find ourselves in the midst of a family breakup, wonder what is next? Know this, that your Heavenly Father feels your pain. He knows your doubts. He knows what is going on in your spouse. Trust Him. He will never fail you. Just remember that His timing is different than yours. Don’t put any time restraints on your prayer requests. Our Heavenly Father is all powerful. Again I say, He understands your situation and that of your spouse. Only He, through the Holy Spirit, can change the heart and mind of your spouse. In like manner, during the time you and your spouse are apart (emotionally and physically), the Holy Spirit will work on your heart and mind doing a much needed tune-up.” Ben in Texas from Rejoice Marriage Ministries.

“The Lord will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace and remain at rest.”

~~~Exodus 14:14 (AMPC)~~~

A Wake-up Call to Character Growth

“…there is no time for rest, there’s no time for sabbath, there’s no time for reflection. When we don’t have time for contemplation it will lead to exploitation. If we don’t give ourselves time to think, we will hurt others” Jarod A. Brock.

“And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest”

~~~Psalm 55:6 (KJV)~~~
