Default Jesus Took A Nap

Jesus Took A Nap

LUKE 8:23 NLT 23 On the way across, Jesus lay down for a nap, and while he was sleeping the wind began to rise. A fierce storm developed that threatened to swamp them, and they were in real danger.

So many people are driven -- feeling and acting like the responsibility for running the whole world is on their shoulders.

But Jesus was able to relax. Arguably, He had an important job to do. Yet He had balance in His life. He knew when it was time to take a nap.

Jesus also spent whole nights in prayer. So, His example does not encourage laziness or apathy. Just balance -- and trust in God, instead of worry.

Some may think it would be a sin to "take a nap" because we should always be working. But Jesus never sinned, and we may safely follow His example, and keep our lives in balance.

SAY THIS: I will relax and trust God.

A Bible Devotion
