At this hour we rest in the promises of our faithful God, knowing that His words are full of truth and power; we rest in the doctrines of His Word, which are consolation itself; we rest in the covenant of His grace, which is a haven of delight.
The person of Jesus is the quiet resting place of His people; and when we draw near to Him in the breaking of bread, in the hearing of the Word, the searching of the Scriptures, prayer, or praise, we find any form of approach to Him to be the return of peace to our Spirits.
The God of Peace gives perfect peace to those whose hearts are stayed upon Him.
- Charles Spurgeon, Morning and Evening
"You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you." - Isaiah 26:3 (NIV)
