Greetings to All:
Since I did not do a post in July, I will do two for the month of August.
This post will be quotes from servants of the Lord that have gone on to their heavenly reward.
Matthew 5:6
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Enjoy the following quotes:
A true love of God must begin with a delight in his holiness. - John Edwards
The early church was married to poverty, prisons and persecutions. Today, the church is married to prosperity, personality, and popularity. - Leonard Ravenhill
One hundred religious persons knit into a untiy by careful organization do not constitutue a chruch any more than elven dead men make a football team. - A. W. Tozer
When I try, I fail. When I trust, He succeeds. - Corrie Ten Boom
One who is pleased with his brother's fall and unhappy with his brother's progress is a person full of pride. This is the meanest of all attitudes. For if a person delights in anothers fall, he shares in the attitude of Satan. -Watchman Nee
By perseverance the snail reached the ark. - Charles H. Spurgeon
Nowhere can we get to know the holiness of God, and come under His influence and power, except in the inner chamber. It has been well said: "No man can expect to make progress in holiness who is not often and long alone with God." - Andrew Murray

Rest In Jesus
Good Day to All:
Matthew 11:28
Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Let's be encouraged by the words of Jesus this day.
We live in a day where the world seems to be in a "New York Minute" pace. On top of that, we have other natural concerns and on top of that, we as believers have our spiritual walk to contend for. With all this in front of us, we at times, can get tired and worn out physically and spiritually. But, thank the Lord that He left us with His instructions to walk in this life.
Jesus says, come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Labor in the Greek means:
a. grow weary
b. work with effort (physically and mentally)
c. hard work
d. to labor until worn out, depleted (exhausted)
Heavy laden in the Greek means:
a. over-load
b. causing someone to be literally weighted-down
Whether it is a job, health issue, financial issue, family issue and/or a spiritual issue and you feel like a ton of bricks have been put on your shoulders (weighted-down) and you can't go any further - the answer that you are looking for is - Come to Jesus!
Jesus is they only one that can provide true salvation, true peace, true love, true answers and true REST!
Rest in the Greek means:
a. ease
b. to give rest (refresh)
c. completing a process
d. to pause
How do I come to Jesus?
For the Sinner:
a. Acknowledge Jesus as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords
b. Repent of your sins
c. Confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord
d. Believe that Jesus died, was buried, and arose from the grave
e. Tell the Lord you can't do it, He has to be your REST
For the Saint:
a. Just talk with your Savior
b. Let Him know what you are in need of
c. Praise Him and Thank Him with a grateful heart for answering your request
d. Leave your "over-load" with Him and REST a sure that He will take care of you
JESUS IS OUR REST!!!
Blessings
