Release and rest

In Busyness, Rest, Work

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

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.

Enjoy

In God's timing, Joy, Letting go, Rest, Worry

For now, daughter, rest.

Enjoy today.

Enjoy what I give you.

Enjoy this time.

You’re forgiven and cleared to do so.

You always have been.

You always will be.

Don’t be afraid that nothing will get done.

It will.

And there will be joy at what we accomplish

Together,

All at the right time.

Open the gift

In Jeremiah, Letting go, Listening to God, Rest, Trust, Waiting

You can hand it all to me, daughter.

Just make sure you rest.

Rest is priority.

No work, no assignment, no task from me or man

Should surpass it.

Rest is my gift to you.

Use it, accept it.

Breathe it in and out.

When you accept it, you accept me, daughter.

When you rest, it is holy.

It is preparing you for all I have for you.

Remember that we have work to do together.

Remember that it will get done.

If it’s not today, it’s all right.

It will get done in the right time.

Now tend to your family, daughter.

Remember the garden?

Abide in me, rest in me.

It will all work out.

I’m working for you, daughter.

I work for those I love.

See Genesis 2:1-3; Ecclesiastes 2:18-26, 3:1-15, and 5:18-20; Isaiah 64:4; Jeremiah 29:4-14; Mark 6:30-31; John 5:16-17; Ephesians 1:9-11; Hebrews 4:1-11
