It is a sign that the soul is living in God, if it maintain calmness within through the consciousness of His Presence, while working for Him in active ministrations.
Such restfulness will show itself in the commonest ways, in doing common duties at the right time, in preserving a sweetness and evenness of temper in the midst of ordinary interruptions and disturbances, in walking to and fro quietly on the day’s varied errands, in speaking gentle words, in sweetly meeting unexpected calls.
A calm, restful temper grows as self is learning to lose itself in God. Such grace tells gradually on the daily life; even the minutest detail may be brought under the power of God, and carried out in union with Him.

My mission in writing this blog is to take part in the Great Commission:
Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.
My walk with Christ began about 40 years ago when I met one of the leaders of Jews For Jesus who helped me change my life around. Growing up as a Jew in Maryland I did not know who God was and never practiced Judaism.
The Lord has brought me through many trials, has educated me on His rules for Godly living, taught me wisdom from above and how to surrender and allow Him to take over in all situations.
Hopefully I can impart a fraction of what Jesus has taught me and if this helps, let me know when I see you in heaven one day!
