Hebrews 4

I was flipping through Hebrews this morning and stumbled upon Hebrew 4.  I often look over pages in the bible to read over verses I have outlined, circled or highlighted.  This time it lead me to Hebrews 4 - "Promised Rest for God's People".
(This is truly what God put on me this morning, I am trying to be transparent and real.  These are real struggles for me)
A few questions to seek
*  What do I (you) need rest from?
*  Will I (you) allow God to take it? 
                If I (we) allow God to take what is hindering me (us) from rest it will create a stronger faith in Him and stronger trust in Him.

  Rest is needed for all!  Even God!

Living on this earth is very tiresome but in order to truly have rest a few things must surface first!
*  believing in who our Father truly is
*  Accepting what Christ did for our sins
*  Accepting that I (we) am a sinner and seek His forgiveness
*  Allow myself (ourselves) to build a relationship with Christ
*  Allowing, with God, to slowly transform Me (us)
*  Build my (your) trust in Him, build my (your) faith in Him and accepting His unconditional LOVE!
*  Complete acceptance that God is our Father and no past or even present sins or mistakes or an uncontrolled past will make Him leave us! 
*  He is for us not against us!
*  He desires us!
*  He doesn't' want to fix me (us), He desires to weave my (our) past into who He knows I (you are) am strong enough to be!  Then we can see how beautiful we are!


Then will our rest in Him come!
