Rest for the weary
Who doesn't fall into that category?
Physically weary?
Emotionally weary?
Spiritually weary?
Listen to Jesus' remedy:
"Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth"
PRAISE!?!?!?
When you are weary (like Jay and Rachel must be by this point...) is your first instinct praise?
Bad health, bad money situations, bad job future, bad relationships - go ahead - PRAISE GOD!!!!
Why praise?
Thanks for asking! Keep reading:
"Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth because You have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children."
God chooses to reveal some things to little children.
Trusting, loving, believing children. Like Trey.
God bless that sweet boy. He even ASKS to go BACK to the "hop-it-all!"
Trey trusts his parents.
Trey believes they will provide for him.
God is waiting to do the same for you and for me.
Allow God to uncover His truths in your life.
Grasp that child-like faith and trust Him!
"Yes, Father, for this was Your good pleasure."
And so on Trey Tuesday we seek God's good pleasure in regards to Trey's life.
Please keep praying for Trey's cancer to respond completely to his treatment plan. For it to be GONE from his scans and his body!
Please also pray for his blood levels and numbers and scans and tests to be healthy and strong!
And please offer a prayer of thanks for Trey having "normal" days at home....especially before he faces 4 weeks in the hospital for his round of "super" chemo.

And we
offer a prayer of thanks for all of you: Team Mitlo One! Thank you for
your prayers, your meals, your gifts, your time, your favors, your
messages, your encouraging words, your shoulder to lean on for Jay and
Rachel and Joe and Bella and Trey! Thank God we can all depend on Him
to carry us through! There is ALWAYS room on God's team! :)
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”
Matthew 11:25-30
