What a Concept!

Dear Friends of Come Rest,
·      Feeling especially grateful to be alive in Christ today. No doubt because I’ve been memorizing Philippians 4:4-13 the last few days and opening my conversation with the Lord each morning with Psalm 63. His Spirit picks me up each time I pick up His Word and put it in my heart. I am so grateful for how patient and merciful He is with me when I don’t seek His face and don’t listen for His voice. I am so grateful for how patient and merciful I am with others when I do seek His face and do listen for His voice. What a concept!
·      I am so grateful for all of you who pray for us and give financially to the Lord for our mission. We can’t do it without His help through His people. Many more of His people and His shepherds are coming to us weary, thirsty, hungry for Him. Praise God!
·      Have you checked our new website? Enjoy! Recommend it to others. Thanks!

Love and blessings,
Richard Speight
