Quotes about Rest

O Love that wilt not let me go, I rest my weary soul in Thee; I give Thee back the life I owe, That in Thine ocean depths its flow May richer fuller be. O Cross that liftest up my head, I dare not ask to fly from Thee; I lay in dust life's glory dead, And from the ground there blossoms red Life that shall endless be.10

The mind should be kept peaceful. As the prophet Isaiah tells us, when the mind is stayed on the right things, it will be at rest.

Take some bold steps of faith and change anything the Lord leads you to change. If what you are doing with your time is not bearing good fruit, make a change. If you are not getting enough rest, make a change. If you are not disciplining your children and their behavior is causing you a lot of stress, make a change. If you are bored, make a change. If your friends are taking advantage of you, make a change! Stress can be relieved if you're not afraid to make changes.

No matter what you are going through or what storms you are facing in life, take your position. Don't give up. Stand still. Enter God's rest. See the salvation of the Lord.

Remember, no matter what your battle is, it is not yours; the battle belongs to the Lord, and He has a plan to bring you victory.

wonderful. Being nervous, tense, and worried is not wonderful, so why aren't more people relaxed? Jesus said if we are weary and overburdened, we should go to Him and He will give us rest, relaxation, and ease (see Matt. 11:28—29). Jesus wants to teach us the right way to live, which is different from the way most of the world lives. It would be putting it mildly

Let God fight your battles while you remain at rest, trusting Him.
