Psalm 91 Why are you so Busy?

Psalm 91:1
He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
Will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

Rest-
Really…………..?
Rest?

I thought I was supposed to be doing stuff.

I thought the busier I was.......
The better I was-

I thought the busier I was……..
The more important I was.

I thought the more I did-
The more useful I could be to God-
The more He would like me-
Maybe even.......
Be proud of me.

Maybe if I can just do enough-
Accomplish enough-
Win enough-
Maybe then………
They will all see-
They will all see and……….
Love me.

Foolishness- Foolishness- Foolishness-
All this………… 
Striving-
Chasing-
Pursuing-

For what?

Validation?
Respect?
A sense that my life………
Counts for something?

You young guys take heed of this-

You will never be able to do enough-
Accomplish enough-
Achieve enough-
To be satisfied that.........
Your life has been......
Enough.

Give it up-
Surrender-
Surrender to the Truth-
The Truth that……….
Father loves you.

Dwell in Him-
Live in that Truth
And.......

Rest.

Matthew 11:28
Come unto Me
All you who are weary and  heavy laden and
I will give you.......
Rest......

Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit,
Move in me today to settle into the Truth-
The Truth of Your Great Love for me-
The Truth that as I dwell in You-
The Truth that as You live in and through me-
I can.........
Rest.
