Christmas Devotional
Rest and Work! Aren't they opposites? Not exactly. It was customary for a pregnant woman to rest for 3 months but Mary took intentional action to remove herself from onlookers and distractions and rest with her aunt, Elizabeth. Because of the action she received clarity. Elizabeth was able to give her great affirmation. Their hearts were filled with joy.
Clarity sometimes gets lost but we can always go back to the last thing God told us to do and do that. We find clarity in His presence. Rest doesn't mean lazy. It means intentional time with God so that when you take action it is done without striving and exhaustion but comes from a place of overflow and is given in peace.
