Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we read out of Psalm 127:2 which says "2 In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat— for he grants sleep to those he loves."

"What worries you? What keeps you up late at night. What wakes you up just as you close your eyes? Today’s devotional gives me peace. God grants sleep to those he loves. That means all of us. He loves us all, but can we truly enjoy the rest he gives us if we are in a constant state of worry?

 

This is something I have to constantly remind myself. When I hit hiccups along the road I get worries and anxious I immediately take the control back from Him. I don’t do it purposely, but I don’t surrender them freely. I have to remind myself to do so.

 

My goal this year is to be healthier and full of joy. Everyday I surrender old habits and become overall, a more joyful person. I remember my joy comes from Him. He protects me, He gives me rest, He gives me food to eat and a shelter over my head. Now I get to enjoy life, live it to the fullest, laugh, and serve. I get to do things in a different manner.

 

It’s all about remembering to surrender and to rest in Him. I hope you do that this weekend. "
