In rest you find God and God finds you.
“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28
Rest is not earned, it is a gift. You are not a human doing, you are a human being.
Rest is a confession that we are not God, the Lord is God. When you make Jesus Lord of the rest, he takes care of the rest.
Here are three ways to activate sabbath into your life
Divert Daily—Like Jesus, seek a quiet place to pray each day.
Withdraw Weekly—Like Jesus, seek the house of worship each week.
Abandon Annually—Like Jesus, schedule vacation, to vacate your work and to rest.
