On Vacation

I know...I know...the hot topic of I am "Fearfully and Wonderfully made = unique ordinary me" will be posted soon...

So this past vacation break with my mum definitely reminded me of how fortunate and blessed I am to have a relationship with my mother, but more importantly a shared faith life. We worshipped together on resurrection Sunday and it was oh soo beautifull. I love when women truly worship, hearts open, freedom of love...it's incredible. I really believe that women have the heart of God, it stretches but never breaks, it rebounds and loves overtly passionately and sometimes secretively, but nonetheless it loves soo profoundly that I know God sees and can relate to...that is exactly where I lead to my blog topic "On Vacation".

I watched a Joyce Meyer episode as part of my reminder to enjoy everyday living, and she talked about Mathew 11:28-30
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."

She preached it in a way I had never heard. If you digest it carefully, Jesus invites us to find rest in Him when we are faced in trouble. Now imagine a rest to yor favorite guilty pleasure or dream place. Mine is an all expense paid spa retreat somewhere in Arizona or Thailand :-)The point is if we trust God's Grace to be sufficient in every situation, and we learn from Christ how to be like Him everyday, and we walk in gentility and humbleness of heart = victory and we wont get weary! The keys to kingdom living is taking a vacation in Jesus Christ. Trusting Him when a situation comes up and you cant figure it out...because seriously HIS BLOOD IS STRONGER!! Our God extends particularly to us Martha's rest in trouble and sameness in spirit in all that we go through. AMEN!!!

On that note, I am taking a vacation this week. Mentally chosing to trust God and to enjoy daily life simplicities like a fresh cup of coffee, warmth of summer, and having to depend on someone else :-)
