Genesis 2:1-2 (NKJV) 1 Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finished. 2 And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done.<\/p>\n

The heavens and the earth and all the host of them were finished on the 6th day! On the seventh day God rested. Wow!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s so inspiring to know that God Almighty rested.<\/p>\n

Maybe some of us won’t feel so guilty about taking a rest knowing that God also rested.<\/p>\n

How important it is that we stop what we are doing and pull away from our work. Our minds and physical bodies need rest.<\/p>\n

We may be strong, but we still need that time off, for ourselves and for our loved ones. Shut that mind off. Make sure we take a rest.<\/p>\n

As we learn to do this, we will see our lives change, feeling more peaceful and settled.<\/p>\n

Resting allows our bodies to heal and stay strong. Our health literally improves from proper rest.<\/p>\n

Rest also drives stress away, allowing our minds to be at ease and not always tied up in knots from too much thinking.<\/p>\n

Let us follow the example of God, our Creator, taking the time to rest as He did.<\/p>\n

Amen.<\/p>\n
