REST IN ME

Wendy Rice

Rest in me.
I will say this many times.
Do not be stressed.  
Do not be anxious.  
Do not be fearful.

Rest in me.
I have made your life easy.
I hear your cries.
I see my children.

Rest in me
I see your struggles.
I have seen so many tears.
I see everything going on in your life.
I see what is going on in the world.

Rest in me.
Come to me.
I will lift you higher.
I am the comforter.
I am the prince of peace.  
I have defeated death.

Seek me.
Find peace.
It is given.  
Rest in me.
