When We Rest...

It has been suggested:
"When we rest, God works!
When we work, God rests!"

Matthew 11:28-30 may hint to us that this is a very true suggestion.
Psalm 46:10 reinforces the hint.
What do you believe?

My Lord Jesus, please help me to live my life as if I believe wholeheartedly that Your Blood works so very much more effectively than my sweat. Help me to place Holy Trusting above human trying. In Your name, I pray. Amen.

IF MY PEOPLE... WILL? I WILL! God's Promise in 2 Chron. 7:14.

Being Confident

This morning at our local church's weekly Men's Dawn Patrol Prayer Time and 20/20 Bible Study, my heart as a daddy was tenderly touched and my spiritual eyesight was enhanced as I listened to my 23-year-old son read aloud one of his daddy's life verses:

Philippians 1:6 (NIV) -- ...being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

Philippians 1:6 (MSG) -- There has never been the slightest doubt in my mind that the God who started this great work in you would keep at it and bring it to a flourishing finish on the very day Christ Jesus appears.

IF MY PEOPLE... WILL? I WILL! God's Promise in 2 Chron. 7:14.
