Rest…
My heart longs to rest in the arms of the Lord. Working five days a week I need the rest so I can be refreshed, and rejuvinated for my family. Sometimes my mind is weary, and always thinking. It needs rest, this mother needs rest. Every now and then my body can't go on with out rest. And isn't that so true about our spirit, when fights and battles with the flesh. It needs that rest in the Lord.
Just opening those words that pierce through my soul it gives me this rest, this comfort that no one or no thing can give. It's this rest that someday I'll be able to experience all day, I'm sure. It's resting in His hands, that warmth, that is pure, that is love, that is forgiving, that is reassuring, that is undieing, that is neverending.
His arms are strong, they are mighty but they are gentle and loving, compassionate and caring. Resting in God is what I long for. I find rest in those arms when the first burst of sunlight shows it's face every morning. I find rest in His words that minister deeply to my soul. That reach the deepest parts and something happens my flesh gives up and it rests in His arms.
Rest it's what our body and soul needs. Won't you rest awhile with Him. Find rest today and enjoy the peace that surpasses all understanding.
