Rest and Release: A 4-Week Bible Study

Are you tired and burdened? This Bible Study will lead you to resting and releasing your heavy burdens to the Lord. This Bible Study includes a daily devotional written by Courtney Joseph, as she shares some of her personal struggles. She provides a daily Bible Reading plan, SOAK pages, a Daily Reflection Question and a Verse of the Day. You can find the corresponding videos out on the blog at WomenLivingWell.org God wants you to talk with Him about your struggles, pains, and frustrations, and give Him all your cares in exchange for His peace. Because we do not rest, we miss hearing Gods voice. Psalm 23 comes to mind. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his names sake. Are you experiencing the green pastures, the quiet waters, and the restoration of your soul that Psalm 23 speaks of, from resting with your Shepherd? Remember how the crowds pressed in on Jesus everywhere He went? Everywhere He turned, there was a need unmet, and though there was so much to do . . . He withdrew to rest. Luke 5:16 says, But he would withdraw to desolate places and pray. If Jesus needed alone time with God, then certainly we do. Just think of the wisdom He wants to impart to you, the strength and the peace you may be missing out on. Give yourself permission not to have your to-do list all checked off in order for you to rest and get alone with God. Each weekday, Courtney provides for you a verse of the day, a short devotional, a reflection question and a daily scripture reading. Also, on-line at WomenLivingWell.org you will find 4 videos (one per week) that correspond with the scripture we are studying each week. Each week you will also find a practical challenge of something Courtney does in her home that helps her rest and live blessed. I hope you will take the challenges. They do make a difference! I pray that your time spent in Gods Word will lead you to rest for your soul and release of your burdens, so you can live a life of peace and freedom in Christ no matter what you are facing. Join me on this journey, as we walk with the King.Courtney
