“Then he said to them, Shabbat was made for mankind, not mankind for Shabbat; So the Son of Man is LORD even of Shabbat.”
Mark 2:27 CJB
The LORD wants us to have a Sabbath day not to burden us, but instead to free us from our normal activities and to have a special day of rest in Him.
“I gave them My Shabbats as a sign between Me and them, so that they would know that I Adonai, am the one who makes them holy.”
Ezekiel 20:12 CJB
Our LORD really wants to have a relationship with us, unfortunately what happens is we get sucked into day to day life! Shabbat, helps us to reset and reconnect with the LORD!
“My soul, return to Your rest! For Adonai has been generous toward you.”
Psalm 116:7 CJB
Today, with all the crazy stuff going on in the world, we all can use some rest in the LORD and resetting ourselves isn’t a bad idea either!
Have a blessed day!
Shabbat Shalom.
