Return
unto thy rest, O my soul; for the Lord
hath
dealt
bountifully with thee. Psalms 116:7 (KJV)
In Christ, we have peace that passes all understanding. In the Hand of
the Almighty, our soul can rest in peace in the presence of the Lord amidst
horrendous circumstances and persecution. Did not David have God’s fellowship
and rest in the midst of running for his life for years? Did not Paul rejoice
in spite of his beatings and sing at midnight hymns of praise though being
bound hand and foot? Return unto they
rest, O my soul, for the Lord hath dealt bountifully with thee!
