The Rested Load


Father-Patēr is telling me that someone else needs this today. Be encouraged, Beloved of God, and Rest!

Today’s refresh devotional on the YouVersion Bible App talks of God’s great love for us. It encouraged thinking of a difficult situation and how God was with me. Then it encouraged to see God with me now. “What is He saying to you?”

Very clearly to my heart, He says, “I’ve got this!” Then He takes my mind to Matthew 11:28-30 in vision form. I see myself, yoked with Jesus, our load on the huge cart behind us. Suddenly His great right arm comes in under me and lifts me up, seated on His arm. I’m moving my legs like I’m walking, helping with the load, but He’s got it all. All I see is His huge, smiling face as He is carrying me.

Our God is faithful. I will trust Him.

“Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭41‬:‭10‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

“He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High Will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust!””
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭91‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
