The body needs rest! I've found that out the hard way, and I thank you for patiently waiting while I had to give my back some rest from the computer over the last several weeks.
But what about you? Do you need some rest today? Physically? Emotionally? Spiritually? Most widows honestly must answer YES to each one. Try to set aside time this weekend to rest in all those areas of life. Right now you can listen to this music video, and I think it might help you rest spiritually as you dwell on the reassurance that God knows. Meditate on the verses I've listed below, and rest in Him this weekend.
Let me call out a thank you to Donna T. for mentioning this video on Facebook on Thursday. It meant a lot to her, and it blessed me too.

John 11:35 Jesus wept.(NIV)
Hebrews 4:15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin. (NIV)
Did you know his first wife died of cancer? Here's where to order Jeremy's book through my affiliation with Christian Book Distributors:
I Still Believe: A Memoir By Jeremy Camp with David Thomas / Tyndale House * How should we deal with life's sorrows? When a loved one dies, where can we find comfort? With unflinching candor, Camp recounts his improverished childhood, rebellious teenage years, spiritual awakening, the tragic loss of his wife, Melissa, and his second chance at love. His fiery journey refined his faith---and will give you reason to hope in God. 220 pages, softcover from Tyndale. |
A super reminder of the truth that Jesus does know and is our companion. The One who never tires of listening and comforting us in sorrow. He knows because He is always with us.
