According to the US Census Bureau, there are 2.6 million deaths per year in the United States resulting in 13 million grievers annually. Yet, society creates little space for the grieving to process their loss. An average company provides 2-3 days of bereavement. When we experience the loss of a loved one, pet, dream, or deep heart desire grief arises, and when not dealt with grief robs us of our voice. No position or status can immune us from grief. The author of Chronicles gives us a keen example through the life of King David.

I personally invite you to rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him. (Psalm 37:7) Today. Right now! Pause. Break from the daily routine and chaos. Rest.

Do you desire God’s nearness? Yes, the ability to sense the God of the universe close! Good news awaits you. Father God desires a close relationship with you too.

Are you one of the forty percent of adults living a life gripped by worry? A lot of responsibilities come with adulthood. We make important decisions, which impact us and our sphere of influence. These decisions often made from our limited perspectives come with time bounds magnifying our fear of failure. Yet, God provides a remedy.

In the beginning, the earth and the heavens make night and day, living creatures roam, and God rests. God rested? God commanded all living creatures and mankind to multiply and fill the earth, and instead of helping He ceased, and rested. Counterintuitive to our nature, God used rest to produce more.
