Rest & Restoration

Rest gives us the opportunity to step away from the busyness of life and spend time in God’s presence. When we slow down and place our trust in Him, He can restore our strength and bring peace to our hearts.

Here is my morning prayer:

Jesus, Thank You for being a place of peace and rest in the middle of our busy lives. Help us slow down today and release the things we have been carrying throughout the week. Quiet our thoughts, renew our strength, and remind us that we can trust You with every worry and concern. Help us make room for Your presence and enter the days ahead feeling restored and refreshed. In Jesus’ name I pray, amen.

“He refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake.” Psalm 23:3 (NIV)
