Are you having fun this summer vacation? Enjoying some time to rest, relax, and get a break from the stress of school? Let’s take a look at today’s verse.
He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters – Psalm 23:2 (NIV)
Doesn’t that sound great? God wants to help us rest and relax. He wants to give us peace in the storm.
It can feel sometimes like God is asking us to give up a lot to live for Him. But the reason He asks us to not live like the world is that He can give us peace unlike the world can. When we follow Him, He helps us lie down in green pastures. He helps us experience peace when it doesn’t make sense that we should have peace.
Following after God sometimes can seem like it’s not paying off. However, it always does. Following God brings you peace and quiet that you can’t get anywhere else. So today be encouraged. God wants to give you peace, bring you into good things, it’s just up to you to follow after Him. Get to know Him and you’ll experience peace a deeper way.
