Six days For One Day

Greetings to all; may we each experience the rest that God desires for us as we enter this weekend.

Rest is not only a luxury; it's necessary and needed. At the same time, many of us look for ways to get some much-needed rest.

There is a principle of rest called the sabbath, and whether it's our custom to rest on Saturday, Sunday, or any other day of the week, God has given instructions that we work six days and rest for one, just as He did during his work of creation.

Hebrews 4:10 (NCV)

10 Anyone who enters God's rest will rest from his work as God did.

Exodus 35:2a (MSG)

2a "Work six days, but the seventh day will be a holy rest day, God's holy rest day.

Lesson: In obedience to God's word, let us receive the free offer to use one day to worship, refresh, refocus and revive as we strive for the rest we need.
