Transformational Tip
If you will simply come to Jesus, your real life will come in harmony with your real desires. You will actually cease from sin, and you will find the song of your Lord beginning in your life. You've gone your way, tried your path many times and it leads to worry, frustration, loneliness, uncertainty, or confusion. Your Lord's words are not "do this or do that," but - "Come to me." Follow Him and His way and enjoy the peace, comfort, and love He promises.
Prayer
Dear Father,
Thank you for your Word. So simple, so beautiful..."Come to me."
I not only come to you for rest, but I come to you to raise me from my listlessness, my exhaustion...out of my condition of being half dead while I am still alive. Let Your Holy Spirit penetrate and fill me, giving me the will and determination to let go of everything and deliberately commit to "Come to You." Show me this day the counterfeit path I usually go, and nudge me toward You.
In Christ's name, Amen
