Morning — September 4 — Ruth 3:18

“Wait, my daughter,” said Naomi, “until you find out how things go, for he will not rest unless he has resolved the matter today.” — Ruth 3:18Sit still, my daughter—those words come to us when everything in us wants to run ahead and fix things ourselves, but the Lord says be still and know that i am God. Mary sat at Jesus' feet while martha bustled about, and the Lord said she chose the good portion. Rest isn't laziness—it's confidence in God's ability to act, because he who believes will not be in haste.
