Psalms 127:1-2
1 Unless the LORD builds the house,
the builders labor in vain.
Unless the LORD watches over the city,
the guards stand watch in vain.
2 In vain you rise early
and stay up late,
toiling for food to eat—
for he grants sleep to those he loves.
When faced with a problem, do you pray about it as much as you talk about it? When you lay your head down at night, do you give in to the what ifs floating in your head? Do you lose sleep over the past or the future? Why?
I. can tell you why. It is because you are listening to the wrong voice. Open your ears and hearts to the the only voice that matters. God is speaking if you will just listen. Then follow that voice and stand firm.
You can stand firm against all those other voices around you because you will know what is right. You will know the truth. Even when all you can do is stand, stand. Then even with loud voices shouting for your attention, your head will hit that pillow and peace will surround you. Why? he grants sleep to those He loves.
Lord, thank You for giving me rest when the world tries to keep me up.
