On Labor Day I’m glad that we all have a place where we can find rest. In fact, we can find rest from our Labor every day. Matthew 11:28-29 ~ Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. Whether you need rest from a stressful work place, a stressful time in your marriage, anxiety about bills, or health problems, in faith, we can find rest. For me, often, if I’m stressed or anxious it’s because I’m walking in my flesh and not walking in the Spirit of my relationship with Jesus. I tend to focus on my problems instead of on the solution. In Jesus, there are no problems, only solutions. We may not see those solutions immediately but with unwavering faith, the answers will come. When we have problems we can sing with praise in our hearts rather than mourning a problem. We know in faith that the Lord fights the battle for us. As David praised, I will praise Jesus before all other gods and before all principalities, powers, rulers, and authorities. My God is full of pity, humility, is very meek and regards the lowly. Yet, my God sits on the highest throne, is the creator of everything, holds the highest wisdom, and lives in certainty. My uncertain future is known by my God and He has told me to be certain that He cares for me. I’m certain He does. Beside our God, there is none other. I rest in Him.
