Rest... one more time.

A few weeks back, we concluded a series on rest. Check out that series here: #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8.

Today, I stumbled upon this great quote about rest from our friends over at J.C. Ryle Quotes.


"The rest that Christ gives is an inward and spiritual thing. It is rest of heart, rest of conscience, rest of mind, rest of affection, rest of will. It is rest, from a comfortable sense of sins being all forgiven and guilt all put away. It is rest, from a solid hope of good things to come, laid up beyond the reach of disease, death and the grave. It is rest, from the well-grounded feeling, that the great business of life is settled, its great end provided for, that in time all is well done, and in eternity heaven will be our home." - J.C. Ryle
