Surely I have composed and quieted my soul;What is it like to have that level of rest? Being ADD, even imagining this is very hard for me. My brain never shuts off. I can't recall how many nights I've been unable to sleep for hours, because my brain just keeps going down some strange avenue. I can't even begin to imagine what it would be like to have my brain just rest, and not think about anything.
Like a weaned child rests against his mother,
My soul is like a weaned child within me.
If it's that hard to quiet my brain, how do I quiet my soul? What does that look like? The closest I can come in my imaginings is that it's when I don't think about the things that are troubling me, and simply let myself trust that God has control, and whatever happens He will use for His benefit, if I let Him.
