Promise of full rest.

O'child of God,
even though there is no rest to be found here on earth.
You will be given rest,
in His everlasting Kingdom.

You are promised full life in Him,
and you will shine in His presence.

O'child of God,
remember your price in Christ.
This should be more costly to you,
than this life on earth.

Have your eyes on Him,
who gave His life for you.

O'child of God,
dearly beloved one of Him.

We are told to rest on the day of sabbath, this is also true. Though there will also be times where rest can seem difficult to find, or you can rest for just a short time.

Look at persecuted Christians for example; They may not find rest the same way as many who lives in countries where this isn't as severe. When they are in prison, gets tortured for their faith in Christ, they may not find the same type of rest as many do where we live. Yet, they may be given rest at moments, or just when needed to regain new strenght from Christ to continue staying strong faithed and true to Him. So that they manage enduring till the end of this age, and then gaining the crown of life which is promised to them by God. :)

I also want to add; This goes for any Christians and not only the severe persecuted ones.

There will be times of trials for every Christian. God tries out the hearts, as well as works with each one of us individually. To test our faith, test our faithfulness, test our stand in Christ, etc... but also to be removing what is hindering our growth in Him, taking away impurities....

We all have a race put before us to run, but the way God has prepared each race varies. The final goal is the same for everyone who is saved, our given price which is in Christ alone! Our put together race which we need to run and endure, will be set as the Lord finds best for each one of us!

All for His glory! To be giving Him alone all glory! :sparkles:
