"The secret of
God’s rest is not in the absence of problems or turmoil. The secret is knowing that the Sovereign God
is at the Center and to find that Center and to know its place of refuge. The center of the hurricane is a place of
quiet. God has told us many times we
would not be free from problems, difficult times, heartaches, and winds of
adversity. We are to live surrounded by
them, in the midst of them, yet untouched by them, safe in the Center of our
Refuge and our Fortress."
