He is rest from the constant pressure of the soul’s desire…
““He is rest from the constant pressure of the soul’s desire to perform and conger up. One of the greatest hindrances to the spiritual life is the soul’s itch to make something happen. And all God is wanting is for someone to simply come to Him. “My soul, wait in silence for God only, for my hope is from Him. He only is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I shall not be shaken. On God my salvation and my glory rest; the rock of my strength, my refuge is in God. Trust in Him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us.”39””
