This morning, I returned to some words written by Hannah Whitall Smith about resting in God, especially when we feel like we are wrestling in prayer about something or someone. She writes, “Having made our request known, we must then wait in a quiet and patient faith, sure that the Lord will not rest until He has finished the matter we have put into His hands.”
She implores us to enjoy a quiet and patient faith, rather than a wrestling and agonize one.
