Your words are spot on, and I look forward to reading your blog regularly. The most uncomfortable person in the world is one who is a believer but is not walking with the Lord. Gods way from a human perspective may look harder, but I know from experience that the most restful place is in the center of HIS will. Be Blessed, Kurt Michael,

If I wasn't doing something to make my business work or prosper, I felt like I was not in faith, you know...faith without works. It has been more in my works than in God's rest or his ways. How do you get into God's rest in a customer serv/sales office when it generates so much work? This is something I have struggled with for years.

First of all, the rest is for the soul, not for the body. So you might be very busy, work very hard and even end up exhuasted (Jesus was often exhausted) but be at peace in your soul. I find rest from doing something that has the life of God in in it. What has life for me, may not have life for you. For me, it helps to stop during the day and get centered. Just stop for a few minutes and connect with the Father consciously. Find that place of communion. In that place, I find rest and from that position of rest I can labor, all the while being satisfied inside and remaining connected to the life of God. Yes Sereda, work diligently on your business, but always be diligent to stay connected and find rest with the Father throughout the day. Stay as long in His presence as you need. Don't get in a hurry. Then launch out into the deep for a great catch! Blessings Hi Sereda;

When we are not walking in the spirit as Paul said we tend to get emotional about what is happening around us. Everything takes on more importance than it really deserves. We get up set, we get worried, we get angry etc. All these things are from having our eyes on the physical and not the spiritual. If we are doing the best we can then Christ is pleased and he is the only one we have to worry about anyway. As for the rest the Father know our needs we need only seek after righteousness and keep our minds renewed and centered on Him and the day will pass no matter how busy with out the worn out can't move a muscle type of weariness that accurs otherwise in a hectic environment.
