Learning to Rest Amidst my Busyness: Resting in God’s Faithfulness | Jessica Clark | Ep. 50

Hi everyone! In this episode, I share something I wrote in a moment when I was feeling super overwhelmed and not allowing myself to be still in God’s presence in the way I desire. It’s easy to get sidetracked in our faith. It’s easy to get caught up in the busyness of life or allow doubts or inconveniences to be our excuse to not run to God first. It’s also easy to look to the world and question if this life with God is worth it. It’s easy to slip away from our faith, but I keep learning from these moments to run back to my First Love, and go back to that very moment when I first surrendered my life. I think about the moments when I feel God’s love and peace so deeply when I run to Him, and that’s something I hold onto and desire every day. There’s so much to love about the Lord that I want to fully experience. The desire to know God in His fullness is something I love, and I’m unable to do that when He is not put first in my life. Psalm 16:11 says, “You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”
