Jeremiah 6:16 says, “Thus says the LORD, ‘Stand by the ways and see and ask for the ancient paths, Where the good way is, and walk in it; And you will find rest for your souls.”
Called to service, by our Lord above, is a calling to vision and a calling to hearing. We must see the Spirit’s lead for our lives. We must ask for the “ancient paths” to be revealed and to hear the directions that come with that revealing. This will involve patience on our part (not typically something I’m good at). The verse above says to “stand by the ways and see and ask”…this means we need patience while seeking God’s path for our lives. The result of this patience…or maybe I should say the reward for our patience is “rest for our souls”. When our souls are at rest…we are content…we are happy…we are full of joy and peace. This type of rest is only found in Christ Jesus.
