"Yes, my soul, find rest in God; my hope comes from him. Truly He is my rock and my Salvation. He is my fortress, I will not be shaken." Psalms 62:5-6.
It is not a sin to pause..So don't let Satan beat you up....but tarry in that pause and it destroys. When I am in 'Pause', I simply 'will' myself to the rock, yet, not even with expectations, but direct my energy to a place of praise. From that God places in me the renewal of myself, He knows what you are needing and then ask Him for help... and a spirit of working from victory comes to life once again over the battle for it.
Lighten your walk by exhausting all of the days grace God has given this particular day by staying hopeful, and expect His promise of refilling the cup of His grace for tomorrow to begin, His grace inventory is limitless.. We are transformed not by good advice but alive advice. Good advice points to Jesus, alive advice changes you from within. Jesus Christ is the alive advice thru the Holy Spirit.
