Part 19: Knowing His Best...Walking in Rest!

Part 19: Knowing His Best...Walking in Rest!
-Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow

Knowing His Best...
What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ. -Philippians 3:8 NIV

Walking in Rest!
Rest comes through yielding. When you release something to God you place "it" in His hands, when you yield to God you place "yourself" in His hands. When you release something to God you are giving Him your will; when you yield to Him you are giving Him your heart. A yielded heart lives for Him and counts Him as the greatest one to know...the highest goal to seek...the richest treasure to possess.  When the heart has the right motives, when it seeks to gain Christ instead of personal reward, when it seeks His approval instead of the recognition of others, it can be at rest.
