Resting In the Lord

Resting my thoughts, I look unto Thee Your peace flows divine Resting my fears, I can clearly see My ways, You align Resting my worries into Thy care All I need is trust Resting my sorrows, I say a pray'r Faith in You is must Resting my mind, for You see my thoughts Know me inside out Resting my plans, for You call the shots Remove any doubt Resting, I know You are my Maker You're the true Shepherd Knowing You're not a promise breaker Resting in Your Word Resting in Your love, I find healing No scars, I'm made whole Resting under Your wings, I'm feeling Rested in my soul.

To "rest" and abide in God's arms is truly a joy filled "journey without movement," Jo! A sense of abiding peace moves through each one of your stanzas. So nicely done! Sending you blessings of peace and joy for Christmas. Congratulations!

Faith moves mountains, as the saying goes. Prayer requires surrender, dissolution of identity, a melding, being, becoming, with God one. A beautiful write, Jo ~ warmest congratulations on your win
