Oh, daughter, you’re so weary.
Rest now, and know that it’s all right.
Know that I’ve got it.
Know that
I know you.
You are understood by me.
All your thoughts,
Your reasonings,
Your actions,
Your words,
Your heart –
I understand them all.
I love you wholly, completely.
Rest in that tonight, daughter.
Don’t put it off.
Lay down and rest tonight.
Let me speak and hold you and rock you to sleep.
You have nothing to fear.
Rest now, child, and be
Still.
See Exodus 33:12-14; Psalm 3:5; Psalm 4; Psalm 37:7; Psalm 131; Psalm 139; Matthew 11:28-30; Romans 5:8; 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 and 11-12
These links share just a glimpse of the story God is telling us. When you have time, read a chapter or two around the verses to get the context and see the whole picture. My preferred Bible translation is the New Living Translation, so all links will be in that version.
