“Then they went back home to prepare spices and ointments. On Shabbat the women rested, in obedience to the commandments.”
Luke 23:56 CJB

“On the seventh day you are to have a holy convocation; do not do any kind of ordinary work.”
Numbers 28:25 CJB
The LORD really wants us to take a break, not being busy wrestling with things that distract us! The things we think need to be done can really wait a day! It really is more important to take a day and rest in the LORD, seeking His peace!
“My safety and honor rest on God. My strong rock and refuge are in God.”
Psalm 62:7 CJB
Today, let’s not be busy bodies, being anxious about the things going on around us, but instead let’s just rest in the LORD!
May your day be richly blessed resting in the LORD!
Shabbat Shalom!
