The Place of rest

Tarry awhile and walk with the Lord.
Rest from all your labors.

Find a quiet place and get alone with the Father in secret.
Lay aside all your earthly cares and you will find a solace there.

Yea, there are many among His children,
who are afraid to lay down their burdens even for moment,
lest they could not pick them up again.

So through their lives they go carrying their heavy burdens,
racing to and fro, never a rest do they know.

Never do they stop and ask, "Why am I doing all this?"
The peace of God they will forever miss.
