Greetings to you today!
God is faithful all week long, day and night, never missing a moment. He wants to shower blessings upon His faithful children. We know our work needs to be accomplished to journey through this life, helping our family and society. Serving one another in a great deal of ways!
We were provided an example of a time for "rest" in the book of Genesis. A Sabbath time! A time to pause, an intentional rest for body, soul and mind. God himself provided this "model" for us, as He rested on the seventh day, after six days of creating.
We know from the book of Exodus, the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. (Exodus 20)
Here we would recognize this day to have great meaning. The Sabbath is a "renewing time". We can enjoy a renewal of our "spirit" with God, by attending a worship service and Bible Study. Our mind can experience peace in more time of prayer with God. Remember, rest and Sabbath are God's ideas!
For numerous people, this is a needed discipline to take sabbath time! This is good "soul care" for us.
Do you need to accomplish this more? Read this prayer.
Dear Lord,
help me to stop
to rest,
help me to set aside
time for you
help me to recline
in your loving arms.
Amen.
May you find a closer relationship with Jesus today!
