Restful Waters

“...Let him have all your worries and cares, for he is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you...”

(1 Peter 5:7, )

Restful Waters

Worry is a thief that steals your joy, your energy, and your sleep at night. You don’t make good decisions when you’re worried. You weren’t created to be constantly worried about your health, upset about your job, or stressed out over a friend who had been rude. Your mind needs a break. You weren’t designed to carry all that load. You have to turn your cares over to God.

David had all kinds of opposition and enemies coming against him. He could have lived upset and worried, but he understood this principle: “The Lord is my shepherd. He leads me to restful waters.” David was saying, “The way I keep my sanity and protect my peace on a regular basis is to go down to the still waters. I empty out all the worry and anxiety.” He let his mind rest. It can be chaotic all around you—traffic, people, problems, drama—but on the inside, in your spirit, you’re at rest.

A Prayer

“Father, thank You that You are my good shepherd who leads me to restful waters. I turn my cares over to You, knowing I can’t carry this load on my own, but You can and will on my behalf. I declare that I am resting in You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

Anyone who comes to Jesus will find true rest to their troubled souls. Not even death will make us all fear of what is coming in the future. This virus will not go away faster than we wanted to, but our trust in the Lord grows deeper and deeper. I will come to to You o Lord. I will rest in the arms of the everlasting arms of our God who love us with an everlasting love.

 

[Throop]

May our hearts always be on Gods word so when worries of all kinds comes to my heart, the peace that passeth all understanding shall fill my heart with joy.
When my mind strolls away from the Gods commandment, Jesus holy presence will bring me back on track so I will not miss my way to heaven.

The world is charged with a lot of violence and fear of death. First the virus is killing millions. Second. Violence in the name of Jesus continues to rise up around the whole wide world. We need those restful waters to come to our life. Jesus said. In Me ye shall find rest to your troubled souls.

 

[Cressly]

We need to run to the arms of Jesus. A place of peace and joy watching over us wherever we are. Guide us o Lord through our worries and our fears. Let us all hope in the Lord always. He is the fountain of all joy and peace. May the peace of the Lord fill your heart with joy.

 

[Altoona]

I sing praises to Your name o Lord, for Your name is great and greatly to be praised. You have given us rest and peace down deep in our souls ever since we came to You. Your word is true. In Me ye shall find peace.
