Good morning! How are we faithing? Tired. Man I'm tired. Plumb wore out. Could sleep in a hammock under the sun for a week. Ever feel that way? The stress of life can get all over us sometimes and we get so worn down. Beat up as it were by all the things we all face every day. It is interesting though when we read the Word and discover that the peace and rest we need is available from the masters hand. The redemptive qualities and the absolute love of a God that gave all for you and me. The love of a father that he would save us through his son. The love of a God who takes time to number the hairs on our heads. We will get tired but we need not get discouraged. We will require rest and we get that with a heaping helping of peace. We hurt physically but of course we know we will heal. We get so tired but our savior nourishes and replenishes us. Man that is so comforting...or maybe I need coffee...
1JOHN 1
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;
(For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)
That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.
This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
Heavenly Father,
Lord we praise you and lift your holy name. Thank you for your rest and your peace that is beyond our understanding. Bless those who are diligently seeking you. Walk beside us and remind us of your love for us. Lord, heal bodies and minds. Take our infirmeries away. Bless our minds with assurance of this faith in your son, In Jesus name, amen
