Remove my anxiety and my pride. Give me a response that includes your love for me as well as the person making the request. Increase my understanding of who you are so I know how to rest in your presence throughout my work day. Teach me to relax and release with every outgoing breath. Teach me the obedience which leads me into your rest. Give me the faith to receive it today.[/text_block]

- We who believe, then, do receive that rest which God promised…
