We enjoy deep, God-honoring contentment and soul-satisfaction, as we learn to rest in God's presence.
Yahweh alone is the source of divine rest.
Resting in Yahweh's presence is active, not passive.
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall
not want.
2 He makes me lie
down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still
waters.
3 He restores
my soul.
Psalm 23:1-3a
What's your default setting in your pursuit of soul-satisfaction? Are you looking to Yahweh or something less?
What good but non-ultimate things are you chasing for contentment? How do you tend to strive after those things instead of the Ultimate One who alone can meet the deep longings of your heart?
As we enter a new season together, how will your pursue God's presence above all else?
