Faith-Rest (Trust Leading
to Peace)
By Warren Doud
Faith-Rest is God's
plan for Christians who are going through testing, who are having
problems. Faith-Rest is the means by which Christians can have
JOY, a happiness in this life which does not depend on people,
circumstances, or things. Think of it! God promises that you can
have the peace and joy of God, in spite of what's happening in
your life, in spite of the problems and testing that you are going
through.
