This verse, Joshua 21:44, is a groundswell up to this very age. Not only did God give them rest from 40 years of wilderness travels, and rest from the fatigue of battle against the Canaanites, but also rest from the pressures and thoughts and emotions within where they battled too. All the days of Joshua. God gave rest on every side. Oh God! You write these verses as a ground of hope and confidence to me this very night. Give me rest on every side. I've spent decades following You and have sought a rest from the physical labor and the woes of life. This recorded experience stands my ground, my confidence in You and what You will yet do. In due time.
Read with me cover-to-cover. 2024. Share what I've learned in the dark, in the light. Start the Old & on January 1st. About 3 chapters per day. About 15 minutes of your day. Join us as the "axe of Biblical Love thaws the frozen parts" (66LL) in our hearts. My focus this year is sharing what God has done for me over the years---and trusting God to weave every single day.
