Word of the Day: Tired? Overloaded? Receive rest today
There's nothing wrong in admitting that you're exhausted, without strength. Jesus doesn't reject those who are feeling weak. In fact, He invites you to come to Him in weakness and receive the rest you need. And the rest Jesus offers is perfect.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
Matthew 11:28
In the presence of God, you can remove the burden that weighs you down. You can be intimate and honest about your feelings because He will listen to you, He loves you and wants to take care of you.
Feeling like you can't take it anymore? Meditate on the following verses and thank God for the rest He offers you.
Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
1 Peter 5:7
Tell God what burdens your soul and remember that He does not abandon you. He always takes care of you.
Truly my soul finds rest in God;
my salvation comes from him.Psalm 62:1
Though at face value it may seem like there's no solution, remember that God is greater than any problem or situation. He knows how to solve what happens; you can have hope and rest in Him.
You will keep in perfect peace
those whose minds are steadfast,
because they trust in you.Isaiah 26:3
Keep your thoughts focused on God, on His love for you, and His power. There's no problem greater than God. Trust in Him because, in due time, He will act.

Word of the Day: God wants to set you free today!
Often, we only truly value freedom when it's taken away from us. Sin and the devil seek to enslave us and prevent us from living the best of God's plans for our lives, but the Lord came to set us free from all evil. Believe in Jesus and ask Him to break every chain that hinders you from living for God! Be completely free in Christ!
So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
John 8:36
Jesus is the one who can truly set you free. He has the power to release you from any bondage that might be hindering your growth in the Lord. The freedom that God gives us is internal, it brings light into our lives, brings much peace, and fills our hearts with joy.
13 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
Colossians 1:13-14
Is there something you need to be set free from today? Is there any fear in your heart or any attitude that prevents you from living in the total freedom that God desires for you? Go to the Lord! Open your heart to His work, let Him cleanse your being and fill you with His Holy Spirit. The Lord will hear your cry and bring the deliverance you need to live the abundant life He has for you. He does this all because he has loved you since before you were even born.
This poor man called, and the Lord heard him;
he saved him out of all his troubles.Psalm 34:6
31 To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples.32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
John 8:31-32

Day Before Yesterday's Word
Word of the Day: Do you know what it means to be a Christian?
Many people go to church and believe in God. But being a Christian is more than that. A True Christian believes that Jesus Christ died for their sins and rose again to give them eternal life. They repent of their sins and dedicate their entire life to Jesus. When this happens, the Christian receives Jesus into their heart and has a new life!
9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.
Romans 10:9-10
So, if you haven't had a real encounter with Jesus yet, pray and ask Him to become the Lord and Savior of your life. Confess your failures, everything you've done and know is wrong. Talk to Him and receive His love and forgiveness. Christ is waiting with open arms for you to come to Him. Don't let another day pass without surrendering your life to God! In Him, you will find true life.
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 6:23
Remember all that Christ did for you, his death on the cross, his love for you. With all this in mind, have you dedicated your life to Jesus?
