Our 1 Minute Takeaway:100119
• God’s Rest is Free (not stolen)
My notes:
– God offers his overflowing storehouses for our use (God Calling)
– “…my own wisdom seemed insignificant for the day…” (A. Lincoln)
– We are not meant for only moments of inspiration- but for the ordinary days lived well in the valleys. (O. Chambers)
Character is developed in a pit
– Rest is a form of worship.
Whipping ourselves into action, ignoring how exhausted you are is not. (Jesus Calling)
‘Come to me all who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest.’ Mat. 11:28
‘Don’t deceive yourselves.’ 1 Cor. 3:18
– Guard against compassion fatigue, being overwhelmed by lostness of the world- God changes us one at a time. (Paraphrase of J. Denison)
My takeaway: Rest, character, and compassion come from God’s unlocked storehouse… Jesus holds the key.
