How To Quiet Down!
"When He gives quietness,
who then can make trouble?"
Job 34: 29
Fatigue has become a word with many adjectives.
There’s muscle fatigue, mask fatigue, chronic
fatigue, Zoom fatigue, and mental fatigue.
One Alabama newspaper ran an article on work-from-home fatigue.
Thousands of people are finding that working from home leaves them
tired before they start the day. It leads to people being extra irritable,
being kind of lost, and feeling like all their work is heavier than usual.
Are you fatigued. The load seems heavy, life moves
slowly, and you want to begin procrastinating things.
Even Jesus withdrew for rest and restoration (Luke 5:16). We all need
proper sleep, for the Lord grants sleep to His children (Psalm 127:2).
Everyone needs an occasional getaway, a break from the stress.
We also need the mental peace Christ gives us.
Vance Havner said, “His rest is no imaginary escape from reality. His
peace is that blessed consciousness that in the midst of trouble our
real lives are beyond the reach of circumstance hidwith Christ in
God.
Blessed experience, possible for the humblest believer here and now!”
"In the terrific pace of this age (men) break in body,
mind and spirit, and he who knows not God’s waters
of quietness knows no peace at any price."
Vance Havner
