God has given us the blueprint for how we are to conduct ourselves in work and in rest. We cannot be all one sided; all work without rest or vice versa. This world will try to confuse us, weigh us down, distract us and keep us too tired to do the good work that God has called us to. That’s why rest is so important. It’s a time for us to be refreshed, renewed and reminded of God’s Word over of life. Just as Jesus slipped away to pray and rest and continue His work, we are to follow that same example.
