There is more to repose than physical rest. It is also a state of tranquility, and freedom from disturbance. Repose is bringing our souls: our minds, wills, emotions, and choices into calm. This kind of internal serenity is found in close fellowship with Jesus. My favorite hymn is How Firm a Foundation. It is chock full of Scriptural encouragement. The last stanza is a comforting promise from God the Father, "The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose, I will not, I will not desert to His foes. That soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake, I'll never, no never, no never forsake!" Someone needs physical, mental, emotional and spiritual repose today—I hope you will take a break, rest in Christ, and find yourself completely renewed!
