In Gods presence we rest

I believe that we should experience the life of God as being without tension. I am not a Buddhist. I do not believe that we can eliminate all thoughts and get into a state of nothingness. Which is their definition of being without tension. But I believe that Gods presence is mysterious. Our experience of Gods mysterious presence is not being able to define it. The question is Does God respond to our simple asking or does He draw near because we become like Him as He created us by the work of His word in our hearts? Does His word realign our souls and unite our desires with Gods desire?

If we believe that the word is a creative tool in drawing near to God then it acts as a cleansing agent to remove the dirt of corruption and expose our soul. This is what the Psalmist meant by God searching our hearts. In the manner that we view the world and react to our circumstances in processing our desires is compared to a deep well whose depths cannot be reached, we find that Gods likeness to us goes beyond the depth of our desires. He has given us His mysterious desires in His word that are beyond our like desires as a mirror to wash our souls. When we pray as thinking thoughts after God His desires consume our desires. His anger , love, pity, pleasure etc consume our anger, love, pity, pleasure etc so that we experience mystery. We cannot describe this experience.  So that the more that we expose ourselves to Gods emanations the deeper we experience something that we cannot explain. This is what the bible describes as Gods rest. Its an experience without tension.
