“GOD CONTINUALLY CALLS YOU to closeness with HIM. GOD knows the depth and breadth of your need for HIM. GOD can read the emptiness of your thoughts when they wander away from HIM. GOD offers rest for your soul, as well as refreshment for your mind and body. As you increasingly find fulfillment in The LORD, other pleasures become less important. Knowing The LORD intimately is like having a private wellspring of Joy within you. This spring flows freely from GOD’S throne of grace, so your Joy is independent of circumstances. Waiting in The LORD’S Presence keeps you connected to GOD, aware of all that HE offers you. If you feel any deficiency, you need to refocus your attention on GOD. This is how you trust The LORD in the moments of your life.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
But I have stilled and quieted my soul; like a weaned child with its mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me. PSALM 131 : 2
Surely you have granted him eternal blessings and made him glad with the joy of your presence. PSALM 21 : 6
Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. PSALM 37 : 7
Prayer: Lord when I make time for you, you offer me rest for my soul and refreshment for my mind and body. It’s so amazing the creator of the stars wants to spend time with me and give me such good gifts when I do. Help me to put you first in my life so that despite any circumstance I can have peace and joy because of you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
