It's a Long Way Down to the Top: A Book for the Comfortable Christian

Enter into rest. Where do you come to rest internally? The heart of flesh pumps blood, and the heart of the spirit resides in the mind. True rest must first be in the mind and the heart for the whole person and the whole life to rest. Activity and rest of the body, soul, and spirit are life. In His image the Lord made our life in perfection of purpose, intent, and craftsmanship. Where do you come to rest-in His presence with the extra ingredient of your purpose, intent, and craftsmanship? How do you enter activity-in Him or in you? Are you a citizen of heaven in yearning confident expectation, or an earthling putting down roots? "as he thinks in his heart, so is he" (Prov. 23:7).
