Bible Verses about 'Rest'

 

  “Truly my soul silently waits for God;
from Him comes my salvation.”  Psalm 62:1 (NKJV)

 

Resting in Jesus’ Love

In the quiet of the Sabbath morn
In His love we never feel forlorn
We find our refuge, our haven each day
Loving Jesus and believing is the only way

Stanza 1: The Sabbath’s Embrace

In the hush of dawn’s gentle light
We stand in His love-no need to take flight
The cares that weigh upon our hearts
Dissipate as His presence we meet

Stanza 2: His Arms, Our Shelter

I can find joy rest­ing in Je­sus’ arms
And I fear not the world’s alarms
Tho’ its storms as­sail me on ev­ery side
In His loving re­fuge my soul shall hide

Stanza 3: Peace Amidst Chaos

He cradles all worries and my strife
His love, an unwavering anchor-for life
Whispers peace to my weary souls
As life’s tempests around us rolls

Stanza 4: Sabbath’s Sweet Symphony

In the arms of Je­sus my cares de­part
For He shares my sor­row and cheers my heart
All my hea­vy bur­dens He bears away
For I take them to Him each and every day.

Stanza 5: Grace’s Restful Embrace

Grace upon grace the Sabbaths one of many gifts
My countenance is never down He always lifts
As sun-kissed hours unfold their wings
I can rest surely and lovingly as the choir sings

  Matthew 11:28 (NKJV)

“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”

 

 

“So let us rest, dear Christian soul, In the rhythm of grace, we find our peace, The Sabbath whispers His love story, as we surrender, our striving shall cease. May your heart find solace in the embrace of Jesus’ love, and may the Sabbath be a sacred space where you rest in His presence. The Peace of the LORD Jesus Christ be with you all, Amen.”

Ever Increasing Grace: REST IN THE LORD OR BE RESTLESS IN THE WORLD!

DEAR GOD: YOUR LOVE IS REFRESHING~

I will refresh those who are weary and will satisfy with food everyone who is weak from hunger.
Jeremiah 31:25 (GNT)

Turn at my rebuke; Surely I will pour out my spirit on you; I will make my words known to you.
Proverbs 1:23 (KJV)

 His love is reviving and refreshing and is a banquet of joy in and of itself.  And it’s fully satisfying having knowledge of such things in our hearts.  When a soul realized the depths of His love and realizes His pardoning grace and providence in our lives, it is well within and without in all we do.

With Christ, there is an abundance of life. He offers us unmerited favor and grace in His love and sacrifice, which provided our salvation, as we can rest in Him, with peace, joy and hope.

Our day-to-day struggles may vary, and like the tides, invariably will ebb and flow, and so it goes. But Christ’s love is ever steady. A powerful presence in our life. His resurrection an ever-constant reminder of the promise of eternal rewards, and our redemption in which He gave willingly on the cross.

The battle of good versus evil has been going on since the beginning of time, and rages on this very moment all across the world.  But rest easy in Christ, take His yoke because it is easy and light. Shake off the yoke of the “world” as it is treacherous, suffocating, and hard.

When we rest in Christ and follow His footsteps of love we are qualifying for a higher promotion in our spiritual growth and depositing dividends into our eternal rewards.

Have you made a deposit today in His name?

“Father God, thank You for Your love that is never ending, and love which is ever faithful, may I praise You in all I do, this day and always, in Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.”
