The Importance of Rest and Remembering God’s Sovereignty

Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere.
I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my god
than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
Psalms 84 10.
God is reminding us to remember the Sabbath.
Rest is where we remember that he is god and we are not.
Rest is where we remember that he holds all the things together.
Without our help. He doesn’t need us.
Rest is where we remember
that god created the time restraints
and limitations that we rebel against.
Rest is where we remember that he is at work in us,
even in the waiting.
We might think we can’t take the time for rest,
but in reality, we can’t afford not to.
I know this resonates with me tonight.
I hope it does for someone else.
Have a great night. Love you. Bye.
