A rest like this

"Blessed rest, the fruit and the foretaste and the fellowship of God's own rest, found by those who come to Jesus to abide in Him!  It is the peace of God, the great calm of the eternal world, that passes all understanding and that keeps the heart and mind (Phil. 4:7).  With this grace secured, we have strength for every duty, courage for every struggle, a blessing in every cross, and the joy of life eternal in death itself."

(Abide in Christ by Andrew Murray, italics mine)
