Rest and Renewal
Matthew 11:28
“Come to me all you who are burdened and heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”
As we journey to meet with God, we carry our life's weight. Choices and the conceding consequences are real. We carry the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of these choices as burdens. It is through the exercise of repentance and release to which we are invited. This practice is central to the purposes of withdrawing to wilderness. Acquiring the handles to define our individual struggles and strongholds and routinely repenting, releasing and resting in the gospel is nothing short of abundant life in Christ.
The Way of the Master teacher, Jesus
It is here that we may learn the ways of Jesus, that open the way to God... creator, sustainer, father, redeemer...the point of it all; to know and enjoy God!
