I ran across this sonnet tonight as I pondered the rest that is mine in Christ. The poem reminds me that words are not needed between my Savior and me. When I practice living in His presence, His calmness, joy, and peace will consume me. I will be enveloped in His quietness.
The LORD your God is with you,
Zephaniah 3:17
He is mighty to save.
He will take great delight in you,
He will quiet you with his love,
He will rejoice over you with singing.
May I be joyfully consumed tonight in quietness and rest …
