Some people use chocolate to get them through the rough spots. I just resorted to movie-theater butter popcorn, with an extra tablespoon of butter for good measure. Today—or should I say yesterday at this hour?— was that kind of day; I was definitely that kind of me and I thought something savory should be on my menu. Now, if only I’d looked to Jesus instead of the pantry, I could have saved myself a few hundred calories and gotten some much-needed rest….I’ll have to remember that the next time I decide to pull an all-nighter. At least my spirit will find rest. “It is vain for you to rise up early, To sit up late, To eat the bread of sorrows; For so He gives His beloved sleep.” Psalm 27:2
Savoring His Rest
