Like No Other

He will come down like rain.

Psalm 72:6

 

 

I needed refreshment like no other than from the Lord Himself. I was drained to the point of tears. I was tired! I took a break and rested in the arms of my Savior. And He came down like rain and watered my soul, refreshed my spirit and dried my tears.

 

None of life's circumstances changed but I can testify to there is a rest in Him like no other. I was dry inside and He watered me with this gentle rain like no other.

 

It is so comforting to have a relationship with the God of this world, the One who knows me so well, the One I call Lord, to be able to repeat these words. . .

 

"You have searched me, Lord, and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise, you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you, Lord, know it completely. You hem me behind and before and you lay your hand upon me.

Psalm 139:1-4

 

My husband knows me well, but still not like this. Only from the Lord can we find complete rest. In Him, the One who completely knows us from head to toe because He created us. And so He loves more than any other, like no other.

 

There will be other days I feel drained I'm sure of this. But He is always there. He never leaves. He truly is like no other.

 

"I sought the Lord and He heard me and delivered me. . .

Psalm 34:4

 

I am ready to hit the world again, to open my arms and to 

"serve the Lord with gladness."

Psalm 100:2

 

Because You are my help, I will sing in the shadow of Your wings.

Psalm 37:1

 

Oh give thanks unto the Lord; for He is good: because His mercy endureth forever.

Psalm 118:1

 

Do you need to seek refuge?

Go to the One who is like no other-

Jesus.

(Can you tell I spent time in His Word, a lot of time in the Psalms? It's a good place to start when you're tired.)

 

 

. . .like no other.
