Sister – Allow me to break away from our traditional blog format to remind you of The Invitation that awaits you. The invitation to steal away with Christ. An invitation that invites you to lean in and offer a moment of your day or time. An invitation that prompts you to rest in His presence and cover yourself in His love.
He wanted me to remind you that His invitation does not require your perfection. His invitation only requires you to practice drawing near to Him. To practice drawing close.
The invitation that meets you where you are.
The invitation that speaks to our natural need for The Creator. Our need or desire for more. More that can only be satisfied by Him.
The invitation that reminds you of the love and admiration that you both share.
The invitation that encompasses His grace, peace, and power.
The invitation that smooths out misunderstanding and flattens offense.
The invitation that does not overlook tears.
The invitation the transcends fear.
The invitation that prompts us to lay down what we have been carrying at His feet.
The invitation that calls us away from our busyness, distractions, or temporary fixes. This invitation offers a divine solution.
The invitation that extends His hand and reminds us we call Him friend.
The invitation that offers communion and fellowship on the other side our RSVP.
The invitation to exchange our yoke of burdens for His lighter one.
The invitation to rest our souls and quiet our emotions.
The invitation that retells us of His story and His plans for our lives.
The invitation to heal what feels broken and restore what has been lost.
The invitation that reminds us of His omnipresence- that He is always with us. That He was always there.

Sis, I pray you accept His Invitation to draw near and spend time with Him. His Invitation whose RSVP never offers regrets. This invitation has everything that you need and more. Step away for only a few moments, and accept His invitation to lean in. One moment that could influence a day, a life's moment, or a lifetime.
"Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all of your heart." ~Jeremiah 29: 12-13 NIV
