God Wants Us to Rest!

God did not intend for us to work nonstop.

God pushes rest on us because that's what He did! He worked six days then on the 7th day (the sabbath) he rested.

Three things to remember about rest:

(1) Be fruitful. Rest allows us to be fruitful! A poor witness for a saint is to be stressed due to lack of rest.

(2) Be free (from time). God wants us to be free. Don't be prisoners of time.

(3) Walk by faith. While you work, trust God and remember to rest at the appropriate time.

Getting burned out makes you less fruitful.

God designed us to grow the most when we rest!1
