Return.
“Return to your rest, my soul, for the Lord has been good to you.” — Psalm 116:7 (WEB)
The Psalmist talks to his own soul. Not to God. Not to a friend. To himself. “Return to your rest, my soul.” It’s self-pastoral. Self-care before the wellness industry existed. And the command is both tender and firm — return. Stop running. Stop earning. Stop performing.
These live among our psalms for exhausted hearts — one psalm, one honest echo, every morning.
Quietly with you,
