Cease Striving

As I climbed into my car, I fastened the seat belt and peered through the sunroof. This solitary leaf appears as though it was floating, but in actuality it is resting on the clear glass of my sunroof.

This image has come to represent my need to rest. My need to “Cease striving and know that I Am God.” (Psalm 46:10, NASB)

Cease striving. Stop trying to figure it all out and rest. These are thoughts that dance in my mind each time I view this photograph.

This image is a reminder that while the leaf appears to float, its resting on the invisible glass. God also calls us to rest in his invisible hands. 

Learning to rest in Him.
