Wherever you are today, with your burdens, your fears, and your past, and the weight of it all, Jesus is waiting, offering hope in exchange for your baggage. No matter what you are afraid of bearing to the Lord, what vulnerability whispers doubts into your ear, Jesus lived and died, to bring you close and to meet you right where you are, in spite of what you carry. There is no shame in His presence, only hope.

Today’s scripture reading is Luke 23:42-43), and we’ll be praying through the Scriptures using the REST format:

Recite God’s Goodness

Express Your Neediness

Seek His Stillness

Trust His Faithfulness

If you’re trying to start a prayer habit in your own life, try listening to this episode every day this week, personalizing each part of the REST prayer with what’s on your heart that day.
