Rest for Your Soul

Published: Oct. 15, 2019, midnight

Anxiety A tidal wave Pain showing through the cracks of my heart Can\u2019t think, can\u2019t breathe yet breathing too much Can\u2019t speak, yet speaking incessantly Grasping for sanity, for peace, for air My heart pounding like a bass drum Can\u2019t catch my breath, fix myself, calm these nerves Yet through the chaos, tears, torrential fear, He whispers: BE STILL Fear not, My beloved, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are Mine This moment will pass, A breath in light of eternity Though you can\u2019t see, the end is coming I will calm your clenched fists, your clenched heart Cling to Me, and I will give your soul rest Rest \u2022 Amanda Rose Have there been times in your life when you\u2019ve experienced anxiety? If you experience anxiety, who is a trusted Christian in your life you can talk with about it? How does anxiety distort the way you see God or yourself? Next time you feel anxious, how can you find rest in the fact that, in Christ, you belong to God (Isaiah 43:1)? Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! Psalm 46:10 (NKJV)\nRead Verses:\nIsaiah 43:1; Matthew 11:28-29; Philippians 4:6-7
