Harvest

Keep going, daughter.

Your waiting,

Your working,

Your planting

Will all pay off.

Your steps won’t be in vain

When they’re taken with me.

Do this, so you can tell others

How you did it with me.

Remember my glory, my rewards,

My harvest

To those who work

With me.

See Exodus 33:12-23; Matthew 11:4-6 and 18-19; Mark 4:26-29; Galatians 6:1-10

These links share just a glimpse of the story God is telling us. When you have time, read a chapter or two around the verses to get the context and see the whole picture. My preferred Bible translation is the New Living Translation, so all links will be in that version.

Release and rest

Make your work holy, daughter.

Give it to me so I can bless it,

So I can guide you.

Do not clutch it

Or believe it only belongs to you.

It isn’t wrong to

Release it, to

Rest.

Take in my grace.

Accept my peace.

I provide them, no matter what you’ve done

Or haven’t done.

You will be fruitful

When you rest.

See Genesis 2:2-3; Psalm 127:2; Ecclesiastes 4:5-6 and 5:16-20; Matthew 6:24-30; Mark 2:27 and 6:30-44; Romans 3:27-28; Colossians 3:23-24

Escape

Daughter, come.

Come to me when you’re busy.

Come to me to escape from

What the world tells you is important.

It will tell you to “escape,”

But only I provide

Escape.

Busyness is bondage.

Yes, there are things to do.

But the things you do aren’t you.

Come to me to find

Yourself.

Come to me, and we will work

Together.

Come to me when you’re tired,

When there is rushing and hurrying and worrying.

Come to me when you’re not sure

If you’ll get it done.

I will help you.

I will open your eyes.

I will work

Alongside you.

See Matthew 11:28-30; Luke 10:38-42
