......I sat down under his shadow with
great delight,... Song of Solomon 2:3
"These words do not bring to our minds the
picture of hasty transit, but of quiet rest. There are many professing
Christians who are anxiuos and depressed, many who are so full of busy activity
that they cannot find time to rest quietly in the promises of God. They must sit
under His shadow if they would be professors of His peace and rest."
