“Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him.”

For salvation, we may rest on His atonement.
In all our weakness, we may rest on His strength.
for sorrow, we may rest on His sympathy.
In all our perplexity, we may rest on His guidance.
Our need, we may rest on His help.
In all our danger, we may rest on His deliverance.
“Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him.”
All these are the Leaves of Healing!

“You hear, O Lord, the desire of the afflicted;
You encourage them, and you listen to their cry.”
Psalm 10:17
We may draw near to God in our chamber, and
amidst the varied toils, sorrows and joys of daily
life. Not only may we bring to Him our greatest
necessities and bitterest griefs; but all our little
cares, purposes, hopes and fears, and know He
loves to listen.
“Cast all your cares on Him because He cares
for you.” 1 Peter 5:7
