Rest...What it is



Rest is not shutting your eyes in extended prayer during chapel, nor suspiciously wearing your sunglasses to class.

Rest is not not laying in your bed and having horrible thoughts about the people being very noisy and keeping you from sleep.

Rest is not stressing over the piles of homework to do.

Rest is not being frustrating over the silly things of life.

What it is.

Rest is doing your homework late into the night because you were talking with a friend earlier.

Rest is laughing until the tears come out.

Rest is pulling yourself out of bed at the unearthly hour of 5:55 am just to spend some time with God.

Rest is hearing your mom's voice over the phone.

Rest is knowing who you are in Christ because you are redeemed.

Rest is not just a thing of doing its a thing of knowing who is in control.
