Thank you for reaching out with these requests. It is good that you begin by thanking the Lord for His goodness, because that gratitude sets your heart in the right place to receive what He has for you.
The rest you long for, true, deep rest, is found not in better circumstances but in trusting the finished work of Christ. When your mind is stayed on Him, He keeps you in perfect peace. That peace is not like the world’s peace; it doesn’t come and go with a good night’s sleep or a settled bank account. It comes when you stop striving and rest your case fully in His hands. Let this be the rest you seek for yourself and for your family. Pray for them, but also trust them to the Lord. His peace will settle over your household as you all learn to lean on Him rather than on your own efforts.
As for the tree situation, bring it to the Lord without anxiety. Whether it is a literal tree causing concern or a picture of something else in your life, favor comes not from frantic planning but from quietly trusting His purposes. God’s blessing has always moved according to His will, not according to human schemes. His favor rests on those who fear Him and put their confidence in His direction. Let this be a moment where you say, “Lord, it’s in Your hands,” and then keep your eyes on Him rather than on the problem.
And regarding financial blessing, know that God is not reluctant to provide. He is able to supply all your needs, and He often blesses in ways that surprise us. But the blessing is never something we earn by our labor or cleverness. It flows from His grace, and it rests on the sure foundation of Jesus Christ. Rest in that. Cease from your own anxious calculations, and you will find that He is faithful. Often the breakthrough comes when we finally stop trying to figure it out and simply trust.
Your family is a heritage from the Lord. The very desire you have for their peace is a reflection of His heart. As you walk in uprightness and trust, you will see His goodness in your home, peace at your table, provision for your needs, and the joy of watching your family flourish. That is the ultimate blessing, and it begins right here, in resting on the promises of God. He who did not spare His own Son will certainly care for every detail. Let your life be governed by this grace, and you will know a peace that the world cannot give and cannot take away.
