“O Lord… You know me more deeply and fully than I know myself. You love me with a greater love than I can love myself. You even offer me more than I can desire… Take my tired body, my confused mind, and my restless soul into your arms and give me rest, simple quiet rest.” - Henri Nouwen
Before a word is on your tongue, it is fully known (Psalm 139:4). Because you are fully known.
Nothing will separate you from the love of God (Romans 8:31-39) - because God’s love has no ending, and no beginning (Geerhardus Vos).
We want enough grace for this moment, God gives us grace upon grace upon grace upon grace (James 4:6).
Father, may these truths be as animating as they are restful. For Your glory in our good, in Christ’s name, amen.
