Stacy – I forget ALL the time! It’s good that we can remind one another.

I loved this post. Sometimes life just becomes overwhelming and I forget that I have a Savior who invites me to lay it all down and rest in Him.

Thank you so much for this reminder.

Yes, exactly. And the Holy Spirit intercedes for us with “sighs deeper than words.” I need to remember that this week.

“He hears me ache”… Oh to be known. Known by Him. What struck me about your words is that we normally would say that we could “see” someone aching…. but our intimate God “hears” us ache. This day, this hour, and this moment, I needed to be reminded of that simple Truth. I am so hungry too!

Augh, this was certainly timely for me! The past couple of weeks have been a whirlwind of crazy busy stuff for me! I agree with the previous poster on taking a weekly Sabbath…which most Christians that I know don’t even truly know how to do!

So back to your post – I think it’s another reason why memorizing a lot of Scripture is just a good idea…because there will be many times where you will not have the time nor have a Bible on hand to be spiritually rejuvenated, and so already having it in your heart will help!

I’m always amazed by God’s wisdom…He commanded us to take a “break.” One of the 10 commandments is to obey the Sabbath…

Thank you. But truth be told, I am just as tired and my house just as messy. And I need the reminder – which is why i wrote it down in this post – to find time for my Bible because I so constantly forget. I am glad we can encourage one another. Because hearing from you all that it’s a challenge helps remind me that I’m not the only one.

Your posts are just so amazingly beautiful.

I needed to read this tonight. I was having one of those days. Exhausted from dodging the little hands, so much so that I didn’t pick up tonight. I’m too tired.

But now I know; I NEED to look at the important things, take time to see what’s really going on.

Thank you for being so inspiring, day after day.

So true! He is so generous and prepares a table for us -wherever we are.
