When summer feels too much (one page)

You’re already welcome here—print what helps; skip the rest without guilt.

For heat that will not break, new places every weekend, and everyone home at the same time—five short lines, not a finish line. Pair with the full table read Matthew 13:1–9; 18–23 on Family rhythm and when spring feels scattered or overwhelming if the year still hands you spring’s pace. This sheet is only the verses.

Come apart and rest a while

Mark 6:31

And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.

Crowds, schedules, and empty plates—permission to step away before the next wave.

They that wait upon the Lord

Isaiah 40:31

But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Heat and hurry do not have to outlast His pace—wait is an active word here, not a scold.

In me peace

John 16:33

These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Loud season, quiet root—cheer is anchored, not pretend.

Good, and quietly wait

Lamentations 3:25–26

The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

Seeking without panic; salvation on His calendar, not the pool’s.

My soul waiteth

Psalm 62:1

Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation.

One honest line when the day lists ten starts.
