“I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; For You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.” Psalm 4:8 . “For such men justly hope for all manner of estrangement of mind from things mortal, and forgetfulness of this world’s miseries; which is beautifully and prophetically signified under the name of sleep and rest, where the most perfect peace cannot be interrupted by any tumult. But this is not had now in this life, but is to be hopedfor after this life.” St Augustine #peaceofGod #restinGod #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox
