Day 247 – Rest and Restlessness…
From a biblical standpoint, rest refers to a physical break-time as well as a sound mind that is Christ-centred.
It’s a period of time when we’re at peace, not feeling or experiencing the challenge of a trial or test–even though we might be in one–but completely enjoying the presence of God.
Restlessness is displayed through prideful self-exaltation, attempts to control life, fear, stress, anxiety, boredom, poor concentration, and discontentment.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
Matthew 11:28-29
