Dear Lord,
Life has a tendency to become more complex. More filled up. Busier. Our culture asks us to do more, to be more, to have more. Others have agendas for our time. We have expectations for ourselves. We have hopes and plans for the future. I pray that you would give us rest from all of that.
Rest from striving. Rest from other’s expectations. That we would rest in the knowledge that you’ve given everything we need in this moment to be satisfied.
I pray that when we’re presented with a chance to do more or have more this week that we would stop and consider Your will. That we would consider our true capacity in our life right now. And, if the answer for that thing needs to be NO that we would have the courage to stand firmly in that decision without regret.
In Jesus’ name amen
