Faith
These verses and quote were pointed out to me as I look frusturatedly (is that a word?!?) ahead to plans for summer and next year. Thought that some might be in the same boat!
Matthew 11:28-30:
Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, 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 soul. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.
Faith is not conjuring, through an act of your will, a sense of certainty that something is going to happen. No, it is recognizing God's promise as an actual fact, believing it is true, rejoicing in the knowledge of that truth, and then simply resting because God said it.
