Rest. I don’t get enough of it. I gather that most people in Southern California don’t. Obviously, God wants us to rest. He talked about it quite a bit in the Bible. Here are just a couple of mentions:
Exodus 31:15 Work shall be done for six days, but the seventh is the Sabbath of rest, holy to the Lord
Exodus 33:14 And He said, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”
Rest is important, as evidenced in the first verse. But the second verse talks about something completely different. God is speaking about HIS rest. A place He calls us to. Our promised land. And also our “eternal Sabbath.” The Bible warns against unbelief which will cause us not to enter His rest.
I praise the Lord for His rest.
