Summer often offers opportunities to slow down, rest, and savor the warmth of the season. As much as we need physical rest, we also need spiritual rest. God wants us to experience the peace that comes from resting in Him—not just occasionally, but every day.
"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid."
John 14:27 (ESV)
God doesn’t want us to settle for what the world calls peace. He wants us to experience heavenly peace as we rest in Him each day. But how can we find this peace and complete rest?
"You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you."
Isaiah 26:3 (ESV).
Call to Action
We simply need to keep our minds focused on God and trust Him! As we do, He promises to grant us His peace. Let’s accept this wonderful blessing today and choose to rest in Him.
After reading this issue, we pray that you are ENCOURAGED and EMPOWERED to peacefully rest in Jesus!
