Sometimes, during the struggle, it’s hard to see God’s love. BUT…
God IS Love and He, like the father of the prodigal son will always be eager to run to us, no matter the barriers that have kept us at a distance. He has already done everything necessary, through Jesus, to remove ALL the barriers so that we can rest in His love. Today, continuously choose to rest in Him because He continuously seeks to impart His love to you, in you, and all around you.
“Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at it’s destination full of hope.” –Maya Angelou
Rest by definition means to cease work or movement in order to relax, refresh oneself, or recover strength. What better place to rest than in the lap of our Heavenly Father!
What a comforting picture you’ve given us of rest. Thanks Kim!
