There is a Rest for Me

Finding the land of rest

There is rest for me.

I believe, heartily, there is rest in the life of faith. I believe this rest is for me. I know God keeps me every hour in his mighty power.

I believe there is a possibility of such a change out of the life of spiritual death, and darkness, and sadness, and complaining, that I have often lived, into the land of supply of every want; where the grace of God is proved sufficient every hour of every day. I believe in the possibility that there is such a land of rest for me.

Because the almighty has given this life to me, I can count upon Him to maintain it and to carry me through all. Today, I begin to look away from myself and towards God. After all, the God who changed me is the same God who is able to bring me into this life every minute of every day.

It is for me.

I do believe, that God does want to give me his rest.

It is for me!
