Resting in God: Finding Peace Amid Fear and Mortality

📖 Introduction

Life's uncertainties can often grip our hearts with a frightening sense of dread—especially when it comes to our health and mortality. It’s natural to find ourselves worrying about dying and what happens beyond this life. Yet, the Bible offers profound hope, peace, and rest amid these fears. This study invites you to journey through Scripture to discover the truth of eternal life, the peace God provides now, and how to lean into present-moment trust rather than anxious speculation.

Understanding eternal life is not merely about life after death but experiencing the fullness of God’s presence here and now. Jesus promises peace that transcends all understanding—even in the face of fear and suffering (John 14:27). This peace is a treasure that sustains us through the fragility of our earthly existence.

Resting in God when worries swirl can seem impossible, but by meditating on His promises and character, we can find a firm foundation amid life’s storms. The path to this rest involves intentional trust, acknowledging our limitations, and embracing God’s strength and goodness in each moment.

Over the next 21 days, we will reflect deeply on Scriptures that speak to the reality of death, the hope of eternal life, and practical steps to cultivate peace and trust today. Each day offers a devotional to guide your heart, reflection questions to help you internalize the truth, journaling prompts to personalize your journey, and a prayer to surround you with God’s grace.

May this study bring you renewed courage, peace, and a restful spirit even as you face life’s uncertainties. Remember, God holds your life and death in His hands, and His love never fails. Let us dive in with open hearts, seeking the rest and assurance only He can provide. 🌿✨
