Kanaan Message for Today

Are you are troubled and anxious? You cannot solve your problems and difficulties by yourself. Your own restless thoughts and aspirations are making you weak and incompetent. They clog the channel of your heart through which God wants His help to flow. Leave everything to God. Let all your restless thoughts, worrying and frenetic planning come to rest. Rest in God and in His sovereign rule in the knowledge that He will act. Then you will discover that ‘in quietness and in trust shall be your strength’ (Isaiah 30:15). So choose this course and you will experience help.

Kanaan Message for Today

If a child is hurt or upset, he expects his father to take him in his arms and comfort him. How much more should we count on the love of our heavenly Father in such situations. His love is a thousand times greater than the love of all human fathers. Jesus’ words, ‘Come to me, all who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest,’ give us a glimpse of the Father’s love. (Matthew 11:28) Let us come and experience the wonderful rest He gives.
