My wife and I just got back from spending a few days in Florida with some dear friends. Whenever I go away I often times find it hard to rest well. Being in a different bed and my head lying on a strange pillow. I seem to toss and turn a bit more then usual. I am always thankful to get back to my own bed and pillow where when my heads hits it at night, all is right in my own little world and I rest better.
Throughout the Scriptures the word "Rest" is scattered amidst it's pages dozens of times. WHY? You see God wants you and I to know, beyond a shadow of a doubt that it is He that grants us perfect rest in this world filled with Chaos and calamity. Listen to Christ's own words in Matthew 11:28: "Come to me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I WILL give you rest." What a blessed promise from our Lord! So on this day allow Jesus to be that perfect pillow that allows you the rest that you need from the "Dog eat Dog" world. May God's richest blessings be upon you all. Love Ya' Pastor Rick
