Solomon 5: 15-16

But the righteous live forever, and their reward is with the Lord; the Most High takes care of them. Therefore they will receive a glorious crown and a beautiful diadem from the hand of the Lord, because with his right hand he will cover them, and with his arm he will shield them. NRSV

The righteous person is fearful of nothing and no-one. Oh how we long to be like Noah or Enoch. To walk with God is the greatest thing. When our thoughts and ways are aligned with God’s we are unstoppable. Every believer should seek that ultimate experience to truly ‘walk’ with God. As they say, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, so step in the right direction to seek out the heart of God.

There is a place of quiet rest,
Near to the heart of God.
A place where sin cannot molest,
Near to the heart of God.
Refrain
O Jesus, blest Redeemer,
Sent from the heart of God,
Hold us who wait before Thee
Near to the heart of God.
There is a place of comfort sweet,
Near to the heart of God.
A place where we our Savior meet,
Near to the heart of God.
Refrain
There is a place of full release,
Near to the heart of God.
A place where all is joy and peace,
Near to the heart of God.
Refrain
