Day 2 #TrustinGod Alright! Were already on the second day! How are you doin? To be honest, I had this realization today that Im so burned out from the semester, and its only the second day. As I think about the semester and why I feel so tired, I realize that I struggle to rest. I sometimes have this overwhelming feeling that Im not working hard enough, long enough, or fast enough, and I go into overdrive so that I keep up with the work ethic that Ive designed in my head. And during this time, the Lord began to really challenge my faith in Him. If I truly trusted in Him, if I truly trusted in His plan for me and His power, than I should also trust in His invitation for me to rest. Because ultimately, my abilities do not compare to that of Gods. And its only in resting in Him that I found that I could actually perform at my best. This finals week, lets remember to make time each day to rest. 28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Matt. 11:28-30 How can we practice trusting in God? Im going to challenge us to get eight hours of sleep each night. This will allow our brains to process all of the information that weve studied (Im not making this up)! If that seems really crazy, ask God to help you find time to rest and recharge each day. We can trust in Him. https://youtube/watch?v=OjkshFIfz5g
