Lately, I've been a little weary...with the mundane, with the everyday, with the late nights and early mornings, with the 9 to 5's. I just need a little rest. Yeah, physical rest would be fantastic, maybe 48 hours of straight sleep...but I don't believe that would do the trick. No, sometimes, I grow spiritually weary, and the only thing that will satisfy is a dose of the Holy Spirit and a re-fill in the Word.
I was craving a little of that rest that is mentioned over in chapter 4 in the book of Hebrews, hoping to meditate on it a while, praying it would resonate in my spirit and my marrow. I have this neat app on my IPhone that allows my phone to read to me, so while getting ready yesterday morning, I went to Hebrews and hit play. Somehow {enter God}, I ended up in 1 Peter, and I believe I needed to be there.
"But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people of His own, so that you may proclaim the virtues of the One who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. You once were not a people, but now you are God's people. You were shown no mercy, but now you have received mercy."
