Sunday Stillness – Pause
A week in perspective – I see the times that I had energy and when I lagged. When I learned to lean on God – and ask for energy – I blossomed. When I pushed through in my own strength – I sagged.
Day 2 in Session 3 of Margaret Feinberg’s Bible Study based on Wonderstruck – is called “The Pause Awakens us to God”. I had an amazing morning reading and working through this session.
I developed this acronym to remind me to take that Pause-
Put Aside Until Spirit Energizes.
Here are a two questions you can ask yourselves:
- How does lack of rest make you dull to the things of God?
- What temptations are you more prone to give in to when you haven’t received enough rest?
“By taking time – even if only a portion of a day – to stop working and rest, I’m reminded that God holds all things together” (Wonderstruck Bible Study, Margaret Feinberg). [Tweet this]
Jesus tells us to take time to be with Him and rest – to be refreshed in the Spirit.
“Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest” (Mark 6:31, NIV).
What is stopping you? Is there any reason for you not to take 3 minutes – right now and seek His Presence?
PAUSE.

Read the Sunday Stillness rules if you are new here.
I would appreciate if you would link only about God’s Word. If you have a linky party that’s okay if it is about the same thing. Please no sales or prizes. I want this to be friendly but I must ask you to abide by the rules. Others want to read God’s Word – and that is what I would like the links to be about. I must take down the links that don’t follow the rules. Thanks so much.
