Why can we rest peacefully in God's love?

Answered in 1 source

We can rest peacefully in God's love because He provides security and assurance through His unwavering affection and the finished work of Christ.

The peace and security that Christians experience in God's love stem from the understanding that His affection is unchanging and fully directed towards each believer. Psalm 4:8 highlights that 'I will both lay me down in peace and sleep; for thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety.' This scriptural promise assures believers that regardless of life’s troubles, they can find rest, knowing that God holds them securely in His love. Furthermore, through Christ's completed work of redemption, believers are given a firm foundation to confidently lay down their heads and rest, secure in the knowledge of their salvation and God’s ongoing care.
