"Rest" Chapter 13, Page 30-

I know all about your relentless days,
and your sleepless nights.

I've seen your jangled nerves,
rubbed raw on life.

I've felt the crushing weight
of guilt and sin-
I carried yours all the way to Calvary
on My own shoulders.

And now MY invitation stands,
wide open as My heart.

Come to Me!

Let Me care for your soul,
Let Me lift your burdens,
Fall back into my arms,
Trusting Me, trusting My promise.

May the Lord give you rest, just as he helped us rest in Him when we really needed to!

Bro. OA,

Isn't the encouragement someone gave us in times gone by, many times
the very thing we will also need by and by!
That is precious, Brother!

Hugs,(motherly, of course!)

Yes, Sis Falla, and Sister Diz knows why I sent her this verse from this particular book. She sent it to Lola just before Lola left us. I read every word of this book to Lola. It gave her such comfort. The book has a matching pen with it, and Lola wanted me to hand her the pen one day with a piece of paper. She tried her best to write her name with it just because "that lady in California was sweet enough to send it to me". Thats the one and only time that pen was ever written with...or ever will be. I'll cherish that book, pen and scrap of paper. Just wanted Sis Diz to know how she helped us to find rest when we really needed it!

OA, I read your post with tears in my eyes. Never, ever forget that you are precious brother in the Lord, and your words of encouragement are priceless. You are at times the beacon that pulls us ALL back to sanity.

No, sister, just returning the favor to a sister that helped me in the time of need. I misread your post, though. I thought you said I was the BACON. Thought it was one of those Californy phrases thats not made its way east yet.
