I needed this word...to simply focus on trusting God and resting my mind, which is thinking perhaps too much about a situation that is out of my hands.
A song we sing in church immediately came to mind when Patter mentioned "rest", and i chose to put it in the background of my page.

Journaling:
There are times when I don't understand why some things happen as they do. All I know is that I trust God completely. When I spend time with Him my hope is renewed, my strength restored. I will not be shaken. He is my rock, and leads me beside still waters where my soul becomes calm.
Scripture:
Ps 62:1-2
My soul finds rest in God alone… He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken.
Song lyrics in background:
My soul finds rest in You, My fortress and my rock. My hope for life, my hiding place. My refuge and my God. In You I've found my home. My shelter from the storm. And I'll pour out my heart to You. And lean upon your throne. I will put my trust in You. I will put my hope there, too. I will stand upon Your word. And I will not be shaken. I will let my praises show. Holding on to what I know. Because I know You're always there. And I will not be shaken, I will not be shaken. I will not be moved. I'm leaning on the throne. Because You died for me. And called me to Your own. And even when the strongest winds begin to blow. I will stand my ground. I will not be moved. I will not be shaken. -Rick Muchow
