Refuse to get up. Remain.
Hear this invitation from Jesus, to his dear children,to you,to me:
As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. John 15:9
To remain in him means to refuse to get up from his lap.
When it seems like the situation calls for me to stand up and take charge, Jesus gives me permission to remain still, if only on the inside, to trust deeply and fully that he will be strong on my behalf.
Even when it seems impossible. Even when it’s counter intuitive Even if it means I will look weak. (Grace for the Good Girl p. 147)
Today, you have permission to climb up in the Father’s lap, and to stay there.Think about the most important things, the true things, the Solid things.Rest in Him.
Father welcomes all His children to His family through His Son,Father giving His salvation, life forever has been won.(LSB 605)
