Again this weekend with our Audience of One I was inspired to rest. Is it not interesting that rest is commanded. You would think we would just fall into it. Well, some of us do. Fall into rest, exhausted, because we have to be doing all of the time. But we are human beings, and not human doings. Our works do not make us who are. God made us who we are. The righteousness of Himself in Christ. Jehovah’s Tsidkenu bids us to rest in His righteousness. If we truly follow Jesus, then we follow Him into heavenly places, seated at the right hand of God. A place where all work ceases, and we receive.
Daily rest in Him, and remember to rest with Him.
1 Corinthians 5:21. He hath made Him ( Jesus) to be sin for us, who knew no sin, that we might be made the righteousness of God in Christ.

I, like Mary, am mostly found at the feet of Jesus asking for words that give life. I blog straight from the heart with the encouragement gleaned from sitting at His feet. So sit down at the well and drink deep. Know you are His Beloved.
I am 46, on disability due to Fibromyalgia, a worshiper, a daughter of a King, a wife with the best husband in the world, a mother of four beautiful girls, a student pursuing a degree in Christian Counseling, a writer, a vocalist, and coffee lover. My best friend is a good book, and my nemesis is the perpetual laundry pile. I love to watch movies that take me away, quilt, crochet, knit, and learn.
I pray the words written here are not written in vain but are purposed by God to encourage His Beloved. Thank you for stopping by. Oh, How He Loves Us!
