How much we need rest in His presence!
Just sitting in a coffee shop enjoying a coffee. In reflecting on this verse I got thinking “what if, instead of seeing the coffee made by the barista’s for my enjoyment, it was about me and i was made for the coffee” how would that change how i interact with the coffee? It would mean my ego would be self-inflated ’cause it would be all about me not well just to sit and be and enjoy the coffee as it would be an object and legal requirement to revere and obey!
How much I need that regular Sabbath rest, to enjoy just sitting in his presence yet its not a passive thing we just see the things Jesus did on the Sabbath. Instead out of resting in Him we see what he is doing and just maybe he will give us our part to play in it!!
Father everyday I desire to sit with you in your presence and see what you are doing and allow you to lead me in my part. Amen.
