Scripture
“Truly my soul finds rest in God;
my salvation comes from him.”
— Psalm 62:1
Reflection
The soul was created for rest, yet modern life often trains it toward tension.
Noise, urgency, and constant input can pull attention outward until inner quiet feels unfamiliar. Scripture invites the soul back — not into emptiness, but into presence. Rest in God is not escape from life; it is reconnection with its source.
When the soul settles, identity stabilizes. Fear softens. Perspective clears. We remember that our worth and security do not originate in circumstance but in relationship with God.
Inner quiet is not achieved by withdrawing from life, but by returning inward to where God already meets us.
Prayer
God of rest, gather my scattered thoughts and steady my heart.
Restore the quiet center where I remember You are near.
Let my soul settle in Your presence.
Amen.
