    We run around in our lives looking for peace and rest - but when we see the promise of rest that God promises in Jesus sometimes we hesitate to "seal the deal." Let Him give you rest for your soul!

    "I’d love to rest - if I only wasn’t so busy." That’s a statement a lot of us could make.

We feel like if we aren’t always "on" and ...read more
