"Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made." -Genesis 2:3 (NASB)
Life can be hectic and our to do lists may never seem to end. Even in the midst of our busiest times, we need to be sure to rest. We need to rest our bodies, our minds, and our hearts. When we are looking for a place to rest, we can always turn to God.
God reminds us that we need to rest. God showed us the importance of rest as He took the seventh day, after His six days of creating, to rest. We can't always completely stop, but we can and should find time to rest. In our times of rest, we can reflect and talk to God. We can draw closer to Him as we step back from all the we have to do in order to renew our relationship with God and rejuvenate our hearts, minds, and bodies.
Take a hint from God and remember to rest!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for all that You give me and all that You have provided for me to do. Help me to remember to rest and to take time to seek and draw closer to You. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
