Rest for my soul

Being still, resting and investing in time with God is a big challenge for me. This year I planned and wanted to really ‘find rest for my soul’ but I crashed into the New Year and was too busy. One morning in January I woke up early, before my husband and son were awake. I went downstairs to just ‘be’. A friend had sent me daily Bible notes on Matthew 11:28–30 for the day. The heading was ‘Rest for the soul’. I then looked at the Lectio app and it was on the same verse. Also, I was a day behind on the ten-day Bible study I am doing – and the one I looked at that day was on the same verses, with the heading ‘Rest for the soul’. Three times God gave me the same message from Matthew 11:28: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” He is true to His word.
