Wonderfully inspiring, James. As Stephen Sondheim penned in the musical Sweeney Todd - everything good comes to those who can wait. Peace always, John

I believe that rest is indeed coming, for so many of us are tired and weary, I just cannot wait till it gets here...I have been through so many struggles and I'm still going through but by the grace of God I am hanging in there and awaiting his deliverance...We all need to hold on and hold out, God is coming..Very soon to make a drastic change in our lives for the better...Great write..God Bless*Tyesha

I can identify a lot with this piece. I am looking for that moment of rest myself. The message is clear in this piece. The rest may come when we eventually whisper goodbye to our earthly home. Great piece.
