Rest and a hard heart

O.K. I am physically tired. Age is adding up. But, I am not spiritually tired with fighting against the L-Rd, - no peace with G-d makes for no rest with G-d. Hebrews 3:7-11 explains the lack of rest and peace that comes from a hard heart. "Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness: When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. Wherefore I was grieved with that generation and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways. So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.) Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living G-d."

Heart of unbelief will keep us from the kingdom of G-d. Heart of unbelief will make us turn from the truth to believe a lie. Heart of unbelief will leave us without the promises, without rest, without peace. I pray this is not the position of anyone reading this blog.
