A heart that would wish rest and peace on all, is a heart that has experienced rest and peace itself,  and knows the great gift that it is. 

Blessings, back to you, and may your rest and peace in Him increase in all things. 

Much love in Christ, Not me

@Debp This one is a real gem of a promise. I claim it. Thanks for posting it and the others.

Isaiah 30:15 For thus said the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall you be saved; in quietness and confidence shall be your strength

Isaiah 57:1-2 The righteous perish, and no one takes it to heart; the devout are taken away, and no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil. 

Those who walk uprightly enter into peace; they find rest as they lie in death.
