If only there were more hours in a day . . .
Your to-do list is beyond taming, and your commitments are unavoidable. How could you allow yourself to rest in busy times like these What would rest even look like in your life
Author Cheryl Wunderlich knows these questions well. After years caught up in the whirlwind of family life, motherhood, work, and ministry, she couldnt imagine allowing rest for herselfuntil cancer forced her to stop. In her crushing battle with exhaustion, she began to hear Gods still, small voice inviting her to hope, be restored, and to find deep soul-quenching rest in Him. Gods rest was her way back to life.
These 100 devotions offer prayers, Scripture verses, personal insights, and biblical perspectives on Gods loving gift and command to us: Rest. Be still. You can experience both rewarding work and rejuvenating rest. Accept Gods invitation, and taste the welcome relief of a life balanced in His rest.
Cheryl has a heart for ministering to women and has served as a Bible teacher, speaker, and one-on-one mentor for the past 20 years. As a three-time cancer survivor, she has learned how to draw near to God and cling to His Word in the trials of life. Building upon these life lessons, she has authored several Bible studies. She desires to encourage others no matter where they are in their spiritual journey, a passion that has taken her across the globe to minister to the people of Nepal. A stay-at-home mom, Cheryl resides in Portage, Michigan, with her husband, daughter, and Bernese mountain dog, Oakley. She always keeps the door open for her two college-age sons who reappear occasionally with loads of laundry and looking for a home-cooked meal.
