How many times do we wait to come to Him? \u00a0I know I first try everything in my own power, strength, and (what appears to be wise) only to, much later, find I did not have the power, strength or wisdom. Why is it not the first thing we do? \u00a0Only good can happen from going to Him first. \u00a0Stay in His presence and seek His power, strength, and wisdom. \u00a0His rest gives us peace.<\/p>\n

\nCome to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest<\/strong>. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light<\/p>\n
\nAnd he said, \u201cMy presence will go with you, and I will give you rest<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\u201cIf anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink.<\/strong> Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, \u2018Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water<\/p>\n
\nGracious is the Lord, and righteous;
\nour God is merciful.
\nThe Lord preserves the simple;
\nwhen I was brought low, he saved me.<\/strong>
\nReturn, O my soul, to your rest;
\nfor the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.
\nFor you have delivered my soul from death,<\/strong>
\nmy eyes from tears,<\/strong>
\nmy feet from stumbling<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nThus says the Lord:
\n\u201cStand by the roads, and look,
\nand ask for the ancient paths,
\nwhere the good way is; and walk in it,
\nand find rest for your souls.
\nBut they said, \u2018We will not walk in it. \u2019<\/strong>
\nI set watchmen over you, saying,
\n\u2018Pay attention to the sound of the trumpet! \u2019
\nBut they said, \u2018We will not pay attention. \u2019<\/strong>
\nTherefore hear, O nations,
\nand know, O congregation, what will happen to them.
\nHear, O earth; behold, I am bringing disaster upon this people,
\nthe fruit of their devices,
\nbecause they have not paid attention to my words;
\nand as for my law, they have rejected it<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
