Rest is a Hot Topic

Posted on 15. May, 2010 by Karen True in food for thought

I have often been astonished by how often I’ve picked up on a similar theme that runs through my personal time with the Lord, something I might hear on the radio and another thing I might read or come across in conversation. I used to think it was coincidence. Now, I know it’s God.

Several weeks ago, God began pointing my thoughts to a topic I’ve never considered much: Rest. And lately, that’s what I’ve been reading, studying, writing and pondering. And go figure, a couple of weeks ago my pastor, Randy Frazee, talked about…you guessed it: Rest. Then today, I’m perusing the feeds in my new RSS reader (feedly.com) and came across a recent post at Stuff Christians Like and the topic of choice was: Rest.

Yes, God, you have my attention.

I thought He might have yours too, so here’s a video of Randy’s message. It’s stellar (but I think he might have been peeking at my notes:). And a link to the Stuff Christians Like post, Resisting Rest. You know, at this point it would just be wrong to say you’re too busy to continue, so put your feet up and keep on clicking…

God is still speaking on the hard work of rest and Sabbath, so I’ll keep on writing. More soon.
