Child, I shall teach you to REST in Me. Strive not. Be at peace. Receive from the Great I AM for all your needs. I cherish you. I shall teach you more. Rest in Me. SELAH

Psalm 62:1
My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him. (NIV)

Psalm 62:5
Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him. (NIV)

Psalm 91:1
He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. (NIV)

Haggai 2:9
'The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house,' says the LORD Almighty. 'And in this place I will grant peace,' declares the LORD Almighty." (NIV)

Prayer: I am so glad, dear Jesus, that you are going to teach me to rest in You. It seems I am forever retaking this "final" exam. I do desire to receive from You even though sometimes I wiggle too much. Help me to be still? AMEN.
