Rest in God
Ever feel tired, out of step and unable to work at full capacity when it is demanded that you do? Of course, we all have been there at some time in our life. God didn't create the Sabbath for us, but he created us for the Sabbath. He created us in his image, and he created in us the ability to rest in him.

God created in us the need to take time and revere all that is within us and around us. Doing that can restore in us our vitality and clarify God's leading in our life. It is truly amazing how just stopping for one moment in the day and recognizing the presence of God in one's midst can redirect one's attitude and stress level, even in the midst of chaos.

Take time to rest in God, to be holy this moment and let the peace of God pour over you and anoint you anew. Amen.
