God Gives Me Rest

Dec 17, 2017    Pastor Ray Parascando

When you connect with God and with the Christmas message then you can find yourself saying; God Gives Me Rest. Life and all of its joys can certainly take a lot out of us. During this season travel plans, shopping, and preparing for the holidays can take a lot out of you. Your diet can go out the window as well. What usually goes out the window on top of everything else especially in this time of year is rest. It is one of the most neglected areas of health overall. We don’t rest enough. As a result you can find yourself becoming fatigued, frightful, or fearful. Physically, rest helps memory, helps you to maintain a healthy weight, helps your heart rate to calm down, and helps reduce your stress. There’s a lot of wisdom God gives in physical rest. But it doesn’t stop there. Along with physical rest, the heart of God is that you would also find rest spiritually. When you look at the Christmas message you’ll see that God gives physical, emotional, and spiritual rest.
