Day 4 –
Read Judges 3:10-11
Do you feel rested?
Life is hectic and peace or rest can be elusive with all that is going
on in our lives. Rest and peace were
pretty elusive for the Israelites as well but not because they had too much
going on, but instead, because they were frequently turning away from God. Could that be our problem too? Is it possible that we don’t feel rested or
at peace because our focus isn’t on God?
There are certainly things that we must do (i.e., work, pay bills, buy
groceries, etc.) but so much of our time is filled with other things that seem
to take priority over God. When the
Israelites turned to God and followed Him, they had rest and peace. Take a look at your priorities today, where
is God on that list? Make it a priority
to spend time with God; in His word, in conversation. Make Him THE priority and ask Him to give you
peace and rest.
