Good morning my RP Family. When I saw today’s topic, the first thought that came to mind was the one man I know that exemplifies “Hustle” is COL Mikel Burroughs. This man knows hustle all too well. A busier man I’ve never met. I pray that he also finds the adequate amount of time for rest, so that he does not experience burnout. That being said, I have found a 3 part discussion on discussion on Trust, Hustle, Rest. I pray that the Colonel and all of you hustlers receive some balance in all of the hustle you do. Be blessed today and always.
Taken from bible.com a 3 part discussion on Trust, Hustle, Rest. I would like to concentrate on the section labeled Rest. I therefore will just submit the section on a Rest.
Rest
As we’ve seen over the past few days, trusting is the difficult yet simple act of recognizing that we are not responsible for producing results through our work—God is. Once we have taken this critical first step, it is certainly right to hustle, to use our God-given talents to fulfill our calling. But how do we know if we are both trusting and hustling? Hustling is easy to spot. It’s found in our email inboxes, our to-do lists, and our cluttered minds. But how do we know if we are truly trusting in God, rather than ourselves, to produce results? Perhaps the best indicator is whether or not we are at rest.
Rest is what we are all craving. It doesn’t take long to realize that rest means more than simply spending time out of the office. With the lines between work and home almost totally blurred, it can seem impossible to disconnect physically and mentally from the demands of incessant productivity. Even when we are at home, we are checking email, Instagram, calendars, etc. We are always doing. We are restless.
How can we find the rest we all so desperately long for? St. Augustine provides the answer: “Our hearts are restless, until they can find rest in You.” We will be restless until we rest in God alone. This means that while we should certainly hustle, we must first trust in God who, throughout history, has been faithful to provide for His people. If we trust in God’s character, and steward the talents He has given us well, we can rest knowing that the results are in His hands, that He is in control and is working everything for our good. In the words of Solomon in Proverbs 16:33, “The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the Lord.”
This is the only path to true and deep rest behaviorally, mentally, and spiritually, and it begins with our submission to the God-designed art of Sabbath. In the words of Pastor Timothy Keller: “We are to think of Sabbath as an act of trust. God appointed the Sabbath to remind us that he is working and resting. To practice Sabbath is a disciplined and faithful way to remember that you are not the one who keeps the world running, who provides for your family, not even the one who keeps your work projects moving forward.”
Why is it so critical that we manage the tension between trusting and hustling well? Because at the end of the day, when we rely on our hustling without trusting in God, we are either trying to play God or steal His glory, either of which leads to restlessness. Christian, take heart! These Biblical commands are not in conflict with each other. You have been called to trust your God and work hard. And when we embrace this tension, we can rest well knowing we are in right partnership with our Caller.

Good RED Friday RP. The one that speaks to me today is how I see myself. I may not be the best at things- but am on task directly. Willing to get in there and get it done.

I pray that you and I are motivated to help those in need including widows, widowers, orphans, the hospitalized and receiving and the prison inmates, my friend and brother-in-Christ Maj Marty Hogan.
LORD God, I pray that we who are YOURS are each increasingly becoming outwardly focused. Give us wisdom and direction to bless whoever YOU lead us to. I pray that YOU would give us the gift of being encouragers. I pray that YOU keep our ears open dear God to be better listeners.
I pray that we each are becoming more capable in being doers of YOUR word. Empower us to serve to the best of our abilities.
Encourage the young and able to use their strength to help as YOU guide them and refresh their strength even as they use it. Use those of us who are advanced in age to use our minds more to help others. Help us to use lessons learned to instruct others and help us to be patient and gracious as we attempt to advise.
I pray that each one of YOUR adopted children and their loved ones sleep well tonight.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ
