I Will Give You Rest

August 20, 2017 By Charity M. Richey-Bentley 4 Comments

Even the strongest of us have moments where the burdens of life are just too heavy.  It’s then that The Lord whispers to our hearts “Come to me, all you are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” ~Matthew 11:28 – Type ‘amen’ if you believe!
Are you struggling?  Do you feel a tightness in your chest because you are so worried about something?  It may be a family member, a relationship, your work, your animals, but there is something that has you so burdened that your heart is heavy.
Just breathe.  And calm down.  Remember who has told you that He’s got your back.  Remember who said He would give you rest.  He didn’t just say that He would make you feel a little bit better.  He didn’t just say that some of you can come to me.  Nope.  He said all you who are weary.  He said that He would give you rest.  When you are in a restful state, you are not worried about anything.  Your body, your mind, your heart and your soul are light.  That tells you that He isn’t taking you half-way.  He is giving you rest.
I guess today my writing is a little bit personal.  I have a family member that I am taking before God for prayer and rest.  I am asking that God give him such complete rest that all burdens, sadness and unhappiness are removed from him.  God is a powerful God.  And prayer is the most powerful force on the Universe for us.  God gave us prayer and I use it.  I thank You, God, in advance for his rest.
If you would like for us to pray for you or a family member, please leave a comment.  You can even say “Unspoken”.

Blessings to you!
Charity

    Please pray for me and my family to reconcile all our differences, resentments, anger that iis in our hearts and the Hate within the hearts inside my daughters all the way into the hearts and minds of my grandchildren ages 16, 9 and 7.
    Please pray to our Almighty God, God and Jesus Christ ERASES ALL THE NEGATIVITY from all of my family, so the He could teach us all about Unconditional Love and Not to judge and condemn me for the mistakes I have made so I can be included with love into my own family again.
    Time is just way too short for all the pent up HATE and abandonment. It just is.
    Thank you and In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen

    I am asking for prayers to be prayed for our family to be reconciled through the power of God through heartfelt praying. The division, the pain, the loneliness and emptiness is heartwrenching.
