Ever since starting this blog and weekly taking the time to sit down and reflect on what I have been learning through my own personal devotional time on "Devotional Monday." The one word that keeps coming up in my devotional is rest. The other day my devotional was talking about companionship and how we should find it in God. It said, "The way of the souls transformation is the way of Divine Companionship. Not so much the asking me to make you this or that but the living with me, thinking of me, talking to me--thus you grow like me. Love me. Rest in Me. Joy in me". --After reading this I was once again reminded of the importance of finding rest in God each and every day. Matthew 11:28-30 (which is the foundation verse of this blog) reminds me that God always meets us right where we are at no matter what we are going through. It also reminds me that not only does he meet us wherever we are but that in him we find rest for our souls. So sisters, as you are going throughout your week, i encourage you to take that time out of your day to rest in him. Take the words of Matthew 11:28-30 to heart, let them resonate in your heart each day.
