Repose | Curated Box
When one of the world's greatest theologians, Dallas Willard, was asked to describe Jesus in one word, he thought carefully, unhurried, and he slowly answered, "He was relaxed."
Jesus was at ease. He lived in a state of rest. He was reposed.
Yes, He was so many other things too, but there's no denying that Jesus was calm, intentional, and patient. Matthew 11:29 reminds us of His invitation. "Take my yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls."
Repose is a state of rest. It is letting God lead us beside the still waters of Psalm 23.
It is said that hurry is violence against our souls, so slowing down and living in a state of rest might just be the opposite.
Take a deep, slow, cleansing breath. Give your soul and body a chance to catch up with each other.
Relax.

Founded in 2024 in the United States, Warrior's Flame empowers survivors of human trafficking through creatively and financial support. Every purchase directly benefits the survivor who made the item, helping cover costs for essentials like food and clothing. Proceeds from products made by the director also fund life coaching and biblical counseling for those rebuilding their futures.
With a client-centered approach, Warrior's Flame has supported 27 survivors, currently serving six. Through this order of soap for MHG Clubs, the newest client received ten life coaching and ten biblical counseling sessions, and the group purchases additional creative supplies.
Street Hope
Street Hope began as a group of women from Mathare slum who had lived on the street for their entire lives. After working with Mercy House Global to learn the art of hand-stitching, the women of Street Hope are growing in their skills and confidence, providing food and education for their children, learning to read, overcoming addiction, and moving into their own homes.
