to push on...


Jesus said, "Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me - watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly." - Matt.11v28 The Message

But what does this really mean when you're in the thick of the burden, in the depth of disappointment and hurt. It's just words really. Is He waiting for us to cry out to Him? Is He waiting for us to tell Him what's wrong? Well, yes to both of these, but when you yourself are not sure what's wrong to be able to put it into words, this is all rather difficult.

This is when it's good to just be still. Be still and wait. Be still and trust. Be still and hope. Be still and know that HE IS GOD! Faithful, reliable, trustworthy and just. He works ALL things for the good of those who love Him. ALL things.
