You’re weary with the weight of the world. You look in the
mirror and don’t love what you see. The loneliness in your heart threatens to
break you. The feelings of singleness triple.
But in the back of your mind, in the pit of your heart,
there is an echo – a still small voice. “My child – I am here. I give you that
which only I can give, a peace that only I can instill. It is in My presence
that your identity, your fulfillment is found. Rest in Me. Cast your burdens at the foot of the
cross that I bore for you.”
We’re daughters, sisters, mothers, friends. We try to take
on more than we can bear, but the beautiful thing is that we don’t have to
carry them alone. Our problems, our secrets, our insecurities, our desires and
longings.
Find the rest that you so deeply need in Scripture, in the
written Word of God. Nothing comforts a weary soul quite like the gentle words
of our King. He promises to bear the weight that we cannot, to meet us at the
place we’re in, to walk beside us through our darkest valley’s.
To those struggling with the face looking back in the
mirror, remember this: You are altogether beautiful, my love; there is no flaw
in you (Song of Solomon 4:7). You are beautiful, so outrageously beautiful to
our Savior.
To those on the verge of breaking, loneliness at your heels,
hold fast to the promise that we will never walk alone; God has promised never
to leave us, never to forsake us.
Seek Him for rest, and you will find peace that surpasses
all understanding.
