Secret Rest

derb4262

Matthew 11:28 "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.


On many things a soul will lean for rest;

Secret Rest all restless rests excels.

Ignorance reposes on achievement;

Peace enlightens souls where Other earns.

Reason sleeps on fallacy for tenet;

Faith on Truth rejecting fallen mind.

Fear escapes in naps by superstition;

Love strolls on embracing Heaven’s plan.

Inertia binds a hypocrite to creeds;

Love brings life to move while standing still.

Guilt imagines peace in false repentance;

Belief gives thanks, believing Finished Work.


Bodies are rotting stone cold in the grave,

Souls live on in one way or the other,

The ‘secret’ is out:  it’s not in the ‘Id’,

The soul is restless, til it rests in Thee.


Psalm 91:1 "He that dwells in the secret place of the Most High will abide under the shadow of the Almighty."
