This sign greeted me every day from March 1 - 19th as I went to and from St. John's Hospital. I whispered a silent prayer each time I passed it. I thanked God for putting my Grandma in a Christian hospital, a place where signs like this were bountiful. A place where they started the day with a prayer over the loud speaker every morning at 7:15 a.m. A place where surgeons, nurses, housekeepers, and cooks alike let you know they were praying for your loved one. How blessed we were to be surrounded by God's people everyday as we struggled through some of the hardest weeks of our lives.
I especially like the way this verse is stated. Doesn't being refreshed sound so spectacular?! I think that everyone can give you rest (as the way the verse is usually stated). Anyone can allow you to rest, but not everyone can refresh you the way Jesus Christ can. Thank God that He has the ultimate power!
