Quiet you with My Love - Rebecca St. James

Matthew 11:28, “Come to me all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” 

Zephaniah 3:17, “He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.” 

Just a couple of promises I KNOW TO BE TRUE, but there are MANY more in God’s word to us.  This song was in my heart for three days, because it was the cry of my heart to God. I know you have had those days too, where your heart is just so heavy you can’t help but cry. I kept desperately praying, “God please quiet my insides, I feel so heavy in my heart.” and God put this song in my heart right after I got the last word off my lips. I did just what it said, “Lay your head down on My shoulder, and I will give you rest.”

God is so good, even if your circumstance NEVER changes, He will continually change you. We can’t make anyone change, or feel a love for you the way you think they should. We need to leave them in God’s hands, and never cease praying for them. We need to do just what Psalm 16:8 says, “I keep my eyes ALWAYS on the Lord. With Him at my right hand I will not be shaken.” I know this verse says right hand, but I cling to Him with both!

Philippians 4:4-8, I can’t help but use these verse all the time because it is so true! 

 “Rejoice in the Lord Always... The Lord is near... 

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, 

by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, 

present your request to God. And the peace of God... 

will guard your hearts and your minds in Jesus Christ... 

Finally brothers, and sisters... Whatever you have learned, or received, 

or heard from me, or seen in me - put into practice. 

And the God of peace will be with you.”

What have you learned or received from knowing the life of our Savior? I've learned it won’t be easy for me, because it wasn't easy for Him, but He had a relationship with His Father that I will always seek to have! If you put what you know of Jesus into practice, “the God of peace WILL BE WITH YOU.” ALWAYS!!

Are you beginning to hear Him sing over you?

Grace, and the peace of our Lord, be with you.
