“God is always relaxed.” - A.W. Tozer
The One who spoke the universe into existence sustains it by the word of His power (Psalm 33:9, Hebrews 1:3). He is before all things, and in Him, all things hold together (Colossians 1:17). He is not served by human hands, as though He needed anything since it is God who gives to all mankind life, breath, and everything (Acts 17:25). If He were hungry, he would not tell us for the world and all its fullness belong to Him (Psalm 50:12). He declares the end from the beginning, and His counsel shall stand, and He will accomplish His purpose (Isaiah 46:10). By His Word, he discerns the thoughts and intentions of the human heart (Hebrews 4:12).
There is nothing out of His control.
Nothing that surprises Him.
And there is no wrong that He will not set right (Revelation 21:5).
He is not worried or frantic.
He is not fearful or dismayed.
He invites us to take His easy yoke, and light burden (Matthew 11:30).
Lord, may we rest in You. The One who is always relaxed. Amen.
Resting,
