| True Rest |
“Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28).
“Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way” (Psalm 37:7). |
| When something in your life or thoughts makes you anxious, go to the Lord about it. “Be careful [anxious] for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God” (Philippians 4:6). |
| These are opportunities to experience His healing and rest of soul. They are times when we can learn that the blessings far outweigh the difficulties. They are times when we can learn what it is to really “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart” (Proverbs 3:5). |
| The world teaches that peace and rest come from having enough money, possessions, insurance, and security systems. But the peace and rest that the Lord gives is all-encompassing and independent of all circumstances. Though you lose everything else, if you gain and enjoy His peace, you are rich indeed. |
