"In repentance and rest you shall be saved, in quietness and in trust is your strength"
In all the dizzying pace of the ongoings around them, the prophet asks Israel that they would re-focus their attention upon the Lord. Like many today, we experience overload as we face deadlines, decisions, pressure on and off the job, at home, with finances not to mention family, and plethora of other things. Take a moment, a deep breath, remember the words we find in Hebrews, "let us lay aside every encumbrance, and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance, the race that is set before us" (Hebrews 12:1).
