This is the final message of 2023.  Pastor Travis talks to us about resting and taking time out of busyness to rest and waiting on the Lord.

Mark 6:31-32 (NKJV)
31 And He said to them, “Come aside by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while.” For there were many coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat. 32 So they departed to a deserted place in the boat by themselves.

1 Corinthians 11:28 (NKJV)
28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup.

2 Corinthians 13:5 (NKJV)
5 Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you [a]are disqualified.

Job 29:5-6 (NKJV)
5 When the Almighty was yet with me, When my children were around me;
6 When my steps were bathed with cream, And the rock poured out rivers of oil for me!
